Transatlantic Pathos
I remember that afternoon disbelief
Stunned silence from those silent witness
To tragedy pain - - stress such distress
Perpetrated by monsters no relief
Too painful to contemplate the cost
Watch in horror those there wandering
Wondering of loved ones pondering
Shaking heads empty eyes wholly lost
Commentators pause in sadness trying
To relay information sketchy at best
Tears held in check -- throats cleared
Poignant pregnant pause reverence
Someone has to help process bathos
Hiroshima memory eclipsed -- pathos
