... There was another day like this one ....

Poem Artwork

The sky shouldn't be as
blue as it is -- it should
be screaming in outrage
at the lives that were lost.
It should be thundering
mad, lightning spitting, rain
falling in a flood, not
a perfect stretch without
a cloud in it.  There was
another day like this
when the sky was blue and
blameless before all bowed
to the winds of madness ...

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (11/6)

Sometimes, I am sure it's His way of sending us messages. It rained at my great-grandfather's funeral, and amid all of the sadness, double rainbows appeared. He died on my mother's 18th birthday.

The sky is blue to remind us all that ruthless murders won't change the integrity of a God fearing man.
Hasan is still alive and will be dealt with . He will die in Texas. They don't fool around with murders for too long.

Love and hugs!

The whole thing is being kept at what I consider a low profile. They are wringing their hands and trying to find out "why" this enemy of America would do such a thing. A child would know that answer. He hates America and what she stand for. F++k him. I wish he had died horribly. Now he will get to use the trial as a propaganda tool with the willing compliance of the news media, print, television and cable.
