the next day on the news
we will hear about the bus crash in california
we will not know of the mother who hugged her baby to her chest
the old couple that kissed for the last time

The statue next to me stood stoically still, light patterning across its crown as rose spread from the rising sun and across the sky, bathing the rounded peaks in gleaming light.

At first, his eyes skipped over her, for she was just another stranger walking through the department stores, one that would walk past him again and again until time ran to a stop and the stores would close their windows in fear of the shoppers drifting outside.
