like passing pizzas
in the frozen food
aisle
boston explosions like erosions of civil liberties
hang as we move gingerly from this new agony to the next
like passing pizzas in the frozen food aisle
as nitwit politicians and the merciless media
assign meaning to common and vile acts
as every village idiot with a ten-cent opinion
post their solicitous facebook status and meme hearts
then wait calmly for the next tragedy
to come strolling casually around the block
to give them something to yap about over their morning
coffee.
