So what on earth is it about,
this starting of the year?
Will we ever figure out
just how we arrived here,
with mindless hate and ISIS flags,
and fifteen disappeared,
and with their faces hid by rags,
many people cheered.
How do we live Christ's example,
how do we love the worst of these?
Is it normal or outlier sample,
can love cure this disease?
I don't know, but yet I care
to get from dreadful here to There.
Syl agrees, and might even share her ice cream, if it would help.
