SANITY

sanity?

you want to have a discourse on sanity?

how do you explain to a grieving mother that her child will never walk through the door the way he did when he left,

how do you tell a child his father will never see his son’s drawing of their “picture-perfect” family,

which of the above-mentioned folk will lose their sanity first,

one or the other will, someway somehow,

when a senseless pull of the trigger lands an entire community in agony and shame,

looks of condolences from afar wrap their icy cold hands around a family to shake off regret and guilt,

panic intertwined pain allows them to wriggle free,

do you still want to have a discourse on sanity?
