"All I heard was the sound, of the world coming down around me" -Jason Molina
A reporter from NPR
interviewed the ER doctor
who treated 27
gunshot victims
in a single night.
He said he usually sees
maybe one
gunshot victim
per year
in the emergency ward.
But that night
there were so many.
And the thing that
struck him the most
was the utter
silence
enveloping the space.
No one spoke
or howled
or wept.
No one said
anything
as they lay there as
unsuspecting victims
of terrorism.
The shock of it all
left no words
to be said.
The deafening
Roar
of terrorism
ringing in their ears.
