Like It Is

Strange times, indeed!
Like a fly caught on fly paper
I' m stuck to disaster television
of bricks raining down
and steel girders melting.
Bosses and clerks,
Starbucks and computers
hurled out of windows.
Strange times, indeed,
when a jet exits an elevator
and intrudes on the innocent play
of children across the river in Hoboken
Let us pray, therefore, for the elusive peace of Jerusalem.
