Too little, too late, too much
It happened because we let it happen.
It was made to happen and it did.
Because it happened to happen
we have to have more things happen
in order for the sum of all these
happenings to be
advantageous to us.
Bottom line,
it happened, and now we happen to be what's happening.
It's an ongoing process,
what's happening, and it can't cease now. Not for any reason.
Now is not the time
for anything else
to happen but what
is happening.
What's happening now is unable
to not-happen because of all the happenings
leading up to this
unfortunate happenstance. Here
we, logically, happen.
If a hospital happened to be
obliterated
as a result, it was only an
insignificant,
concurrent happening,
not our primary intention,
but it was necessary to happen.
If the children happened to get slaughtered, it was necessary to happen.
We have a right to have it happen and
have it
keep happening,
even if we made it happen
first.
Meh, just some words.
