Black Friday

Black Friday The earth shock with fury as we walked for a fleeting moment nothing moved …. … then glasses flew from space screams filled the calm morning escalating to unbelievable decibels tearing all into tatters … I watched the sky for an array of angels but the bellowing black smoke veiled the sky coaxing my ears for the final flutes in the myriad noise imagination gave way to reality as walls caved into dust before our very own eyes Arms and limbs parted company never to be one again daylight miscarriage a premature night frustrated souls started their untimely journey “from ash to ash, from soil to soil, .... till we meet again...,; Torrential tears flowed down the bridgeless rivers naked hearts trembled like reed grass On a chilly Friday morning.
