today is yesterday's tomorrow

i will not write of death

i will not second guess

wonder what could have been done

if it had been done

instead of what was done

sooner than was done

signs were noticed

(can we stop crazy?)

and should we force

(and can we force)

(and where does it end?)

(and what of guns?)

More guns?

Fewer guns?

and will we ever feel safe

in public space?

can we ever feel

Safe

and warm

and at

Home

Again?

(Yes)

what i will do

is hold on to

Hope.

And remember that in this world

there is

Tragedy

and there is

Love.

and to know one

we must know

the other.
