Dec 2014
sun rises over
ever growing
mound of flowers
in Martin Place
where people died
and people cry
for a loss
not yet defined...

at bus stops and
railway stations
hearts heavy with sorrow
and large with compassion
ride together in a stand
against hate...

and the news stations
rerun information
and families cry in
relief and grief
and the world walks on by

in Martin Place.....
               ...... in Martin Place
responses to the end  of the
Martin Place siege...
people are laying flowers for the two lives lost(the gunman is also deaceased)
... a twitter campaign
# i'llridewithyou.  offers a safe ride to moslem comuters by partnering with fair minded travellers and
has trended worldwide..
the media regurfitates the same information and is somewhat obscene in their desire to be the first with new interviews
and the world ....while compassionately interested
keeps spinning....
and those involved...will be forever changed
my prayers are with them...
