the pictures are
viral, family, yes family
a woman who is pregnant
for her second baby, beside
her son, and smiling husband,
in the porch of the house
the sun shines brightly and
the grasses too green for the
season, and you scroll some
more and this is more enviable
grandma and grandpa beside each
other, with all their married
children and surrounding them
ten or more grandchildren
the picture is rectangular to
fit all of them in one happy
picture this Christmas to mark
another milestone of their lives
in prosperity and posterity while
we just look on, turn on the TV
and focus more on what is happening
in Aleppo or in Australia or Germany
we divest ourselves of this happy
moment and divert out attention to
something worth taking and talking
because, we cannot have it, we can't
we simply can't, we reason out, we
are designed that way, Period.
