Tragedy – large scale 11 04 20

June 14, 2020
Written by Jo Hansen

Somehow tragedy on so wide a scale

Is too big to write about at the time.

It feels self indulgent to vent in public

To appear to make gain from disaster.

This pandemic is a crisis

Of knowledge, uncertainty

And wisdom.

We’ll get through it

But we may never recover.
