100. get as much help here as you can, get it here as quick as you can
port arthur is at a standstill, as the media prescribes its national mourning for the victims of the tragedy, it is all covered easily & blows over so quickly, forgotten until the next record shooting, for us left behind, we question the sensationalism, this is not an unusual or unexpected event, it's happening around the world, on a daily basis, but for now we are shocked out of our complacency, we focus on tasmania, thirty-five candles are lit in a church & burn out, as fast as those lives swept away, i am reminded of the ducks & swans shot to death, over the victorian wetlands, this shooting season, of how they fell like children, i walk by the butcher shop on smith street this morning, last night whilst we slept, a massacre has occurred, thousands of innocent animals, have been brutally slaughtered, to be eaten by a mindless species, that would then turn the gun on its own, for now everyone who cares about these murdered people, knows what it is like to be a vegan, i am quietly sharing their grief, 'get as much help here as you can, get it here as quick as you can' |
