Requiem of the Rising Sun: April 1

A child’s tears
The hope of a nation leaks out her eyes
A deadly dance of disaster
Spinning faster, the number grow
Each one a story
Wrapped up in a statistic
Each one a life
            Connected to countless others
 
We are all dominos and
We’re all falling down now
