Mass Shootings


Mass Shootings

The search for answers
to tragedies deemed 
newly normal  routine..
Violence in our days
in our neighborhoods
with questions arising:
terrorism?
guns?
mental health?
Questions deal with
exceptions to what
real reality is
assumed to be
in sheltered lives..
A return is sought
to simpler days
 happier headlines..
Perhaps
we need look differently
examine our looking
how we perceive
the reality we
are so sure is real..
In our looking
separation is obvious
apparent to all
no need to question
this solid reality..
Alas,our answer hides
ancient wisdom 
pointing to a
persistent mirage...!
