with places to go

our mourning is selective,
it has
to be.
we can't
cry over every glass
of spilt
milk,
every goldfish
found floating in the bowl.
we can't
feel bad
about every lost soul
in every
war,
down every street. even
those we
know,
sometimes get short shift
of sorrow.
we have things to do.
places to go.
