Very hard to look at
this level of devastation,
pain and suffering.

Then images of compassion
and gratitude to be alive
with loved ones and pets
offer faith in our species.

My emotions and thoughts
jump all over the place;
teary;
memories of Katrina;
wondering how some can
bring this shit down others
in the forms of war or arson;
my own gratitude that those
we know from down under
are okay.

finally and certainly
my thoughts and feeble prayers
for those who've lost so much.

Regards,
George Lottermoser
