A death is a fact.
It is the only fact.
Many deaths is a question.
It is the only question.
A number is a fact.
It records. It answers.
Many numbers is a lie.
They manipulate. They distort.
A child is a fact
her future before her.
A child’s death
sears a hole in the future.
A void.
We are all children before the void
when tomorrow is the land of the lucky few.
