Look and see

headlines and more pictures commentary as we watch the horror of murder that is real and on going but then can retreat to our room in comfort helpless viewers

Look folks,  see the planes flying

Look folks, see the carnage on the Paris Streets

hear the bombs

hear the moans

and then have another drink on your comfortable sofa

somber yes  but way too helpless

an audience   we

who just watch

The world's world just like it's ev'r been...

... neither it has changed nor will it ev'r be changed .. Attacks happened in .. or have been just freaking happening since 'eons ... it's not new .. people dying every second ... some getting died in bomb-attacks so some just due to some kinda the mania of mind; some getting suicide so some crushed down into car accidents; some getting died in war so some lost their lives in the terror of terrorism. Some crossing the boarder and getting blasted so some are in "pain" cos the others are "Sage" so they want others to be in "pain" and in between that, they killed "themselves" - The Suicide Bombers. It's just such a shame that humanity's not just gone but .. has already vanished in winds; lost into the ashes of grey since the day humans planted on earth; since the very exact day since spirits got mingled with the pleasure - a very dulcet pleasure of sin for sure.. and what others simplistically doing is.. either some watching 'em getting died, we - the writers - typing fingers on keyboard and writing 'em in words,.. some storing 'em in videos, some making memories of attacks just like 1994 - the historian attack ev'r happened in history ... now it's gon' be saved as the IInd attack happened in 2015 ... and some just mourning on for what's just happened.

"When they were alive, nobody put smiles on their faces
but now when they be dead, everybody running throu' mazes."

... neither time has ev'r stopped nor will it ev'r be. Every day is life, every day is death, every day is night and, of course, needless to say, every freaking day is shine ... it's all 'bout the course of universe that can never be certain so it's yeah: "Look And See"...

Ah .. so touching!
What an intellectual and thought provoking poetry you've come up with! Wonderfully expressed in few simplistic thou' very evocative words. I just love how you cook stuffs in the "kitchen" of cafe.

Great job!

It's like the accident on the highway that everyone slows down to see. There is nothing to do but stare in disbelief, and pray to God.

Welcome to the WC!
