The aftermath of a terror attack
"She was beautiful’ they said, 'as she lay there dead in her body-bag'...the copper extinguished his fag. An act of depraved futility: violence can never change society…try compassion and love instead" "Whom you would change you must first love; and they must know that you love them" (Martin Luther King)

Jeff,

Stark imagery in so few words: the impact will linger on the retinas for a while after being read. Like our images of 9/11 that seared our brains......well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

...the copper extinguished his fag.

He exhaled the girl's description in a puff of stale tobacco smoke.
In so doing, she evaporated into the polluted air.
