Sympathy Not Empathy
September 14, 2018
Sympathy
For the lost
For the innocent
Not Empathy
Sympathy for the Nation
For the first responders
For the victims
Not Empathy
Empathy for the grief-stricken
For the tears
For the emotion
For the heartache
Desolation for our nation
Not the enemy’s
It has dissolved
Our empathy has all but dried up
