when the bodies fell
in #paris there was a
storm
howling in front of my window
the tree waved back and forth
heavy rain drops began to fall
in the morning before
I even knew about #beirut
I noticed shivering
in my much too light jacket
that the weather had changed
all the trees were naked
suddenly I saw
how scary life was so
ever changing nothing
remains the same peace
like a distant memory
already I had wasted it
by taking it for granted
