Haitian Holocost






The earth shook once more
A darker man was taken
Those he loved as well


Anchors set the stage
All the injured hold in place
The reporters cry


Haitians are dying
The news "So Many are Gone"
I did not know them


A child sits starving
My dinner would save her life
I ate half my soup


Blood and death abound
Misery a tv show
Playing every night


I end the horror
With the click of a button
No more CNN
