Terror in the City

We sit eyes staring at the screen seeking reassurance;

Watching the inactivity whilst looking for it.

A city once vibrant and throbbing with the bustling excited metropolis

Now palefaced and disorientated…..

Armed police more commonplace and walking with purpose;

Wounded enemy being cared for by non judgemental angels,

Children mown down and left scattered like lifeless dolls…

A woman raised from the river still breathing.

The London Eye still and watching over the city

as the powerful of the land are  praying in the Abbey.
