I'm walking to work and a woman falls beside Me crouching on the road my way to her blocked By another bending over her. Until another Fending him off Starts yelling Two men pushing each other. Meanwhile the woman on the road lies Prone bleeding Bruised beyond mine and any help Suffering alone : she is nowhere. Each time I glimpse the news I think She’s still there rubble strewn and yet she’s the news everywhere All else left no one is fighting for her. All else left dying alone on the rubble strewn road.
