After the Horrors
The papers are full
of the
horrendous - quite probably racist
mass murders
After the horrors
we Americans
must try - try hard
to keep up our usual activities
Going to a baseball game
I felt a little worried
being a part of the crowd
on the ferry
Friday I plan to go to Sabbath services
our prayers are needed
in these dark days
Sporting events, thank goodness, will be played
as usual
We must not give in
to the forces of hate!
Pick up your pens, poets!
Denounce the divisive politics
which now plague out nation
We must stand together
to chase away
the dark clouds
which now ennvelop
our nation
