The country is focused on an articulate
and angry mental case.
We've heard his thoughts
before, that we are the
cause of what has happened,
not him. Yet, thousands
of miles away, we daily
have similar tragedies,
also motivated by a
perspective, a point of
view, a set of beliefs.
We sometimes think
of education
as a luxury item.
In times like these
we realize that our only hope
is to help each other
to find better solutions
to common
and pervasive problems.

looking inward do any of us know how to solve the problems of others?
are their problems the same as mine - job, family, chaos, job, familiy, chaos and the crazy driver in front of me (or behind)?
at times there is stillness is all of our problems.
Our lives stop from time to time and these problems disappear.
when they re-emerge they sometimes feel more intense
for everyone there needs to be more stillness and more time to think together
our problems are common but our ability to embrace these problems vary
my problems are like yours
but I might write this poem to find order to my stillness.
