Astounded by a tsunami of disdain who can look
away who can comprehend the fact
that they left they left to celebrate
in luxury while millions of souls falter
to tee off in the sun while children go without
breakfast lunch dinner
to sip champagne while people prepare to lose
their homes cars freedom lives
to consider discuss and argue the finer points
while we try to carry on to soften our anger
despite trauma so carelessly inflicted
do you ever wonder
how many endings a winter can hold
and how many more and how many more again
before spring overwhelmed struggles to arrive
