2-25-06- Time is a bastard exerpt

The other night
A woman was shot
A few miles
Away from my home

She isn’t dead
But she’s in
Critical condition

I think that
I should feel
Empathetic
And compassionate
But I don’t

I think I should
At the very least
Feel scared
Or concerned
Or cautious

But for the most part
It hasn’t affected me
Very much at all
