The only unbelievable thing is that nothing is
unbelievable.
 
Another day. 
Another 183 lives struck from fulfilling their
potential. 
Another 183 utterly unique personal stories ended.
Another 183 relatives and friends of those murdered
left empty,
   their hollow shells filling with questions and
sadness and unimaginable sorrow.
Another day.
 
The only unbelievable thing is that nothing is
unbelievable.
 
And always so, another day.
Like days passed through the millennia.
Man’s utter brutality to
man continues to amaze
   as though it were some
contest.
But surely the god I pray to and the god they pray
to
   (whoever they may be)
   are one and the same?
Yet, another day.
Another 183 people added to the tally of man’s cruelty
to man.
 
The only unbelievable thing is that nothing is
unbelievable.
