Words, words,
analysis, paralysis,
and the real needs of many
are displaced and replaced with swirling,
ever changing,
news coverage.
Money spent,
reputations rent,
as all of these Solomon moments,
as all of these vacuous comments
suck oxygen,
abandon needy.
Words, words,
agendas, careers,
all being built and / or destroyed
while bridges crumble and enemies rail–
imbecility, futility,
furious words.
Powerful!

As I told another blogger, for me it’s like sitting on the back porch listening to the neighbours screaming at each other. They may have been married for ever so long, but the way they’re going at it now you’re sure they’re headed for the divorce court.
My hopes that change would bring peace are slim until the zeitgeist of this age, which seems to be accusation, kvetch and roar, changes back to respect for all.

Yeah, and we seem to have the neighbors at it too. It’s catching–all the crazy!
