i cant think in any other terms right now

read this and tell me why i hadn't heard until today



i wanted to believe it wasn't true.
some nonsense horrific blogging legend

but my dear friend molly is is cairo, and she's witnessed it herself
the stories told in that blog happened three blocks away from her apartment
she's going to try to go to a protest today
but she is very scared
please keep her in your prayers

not so comfortably numb
wondering

what kind of world do we live in, where
you go to a main news webpage, and you find stories about
reese and ryan [so sad]
bumbling politicians and their pathetic word games
go to 'world politics'
nothing
'middle east'
nothing

what kind of world do we live in, where
immortals' crying to heaven for vengence is drowned by the clamor to get elected
make money
nba predictions
gas prices georgia
be seen [hiding]
pathetic little games, distractions to keep us from truly seeing
our pathetic little lives

"we are responsible to everything, we are responsible for everything"

but no one's listening in ...
