Do not weep for them, madre. They are gone forever, the little ones, straight to heaven to the saints, and God will fill the bullet holes with candy. ~ Norman Rosten oh God this time it will take much more than candy tiny girl in Lebanon shrouded in bandages and burns not even one relative left but she will never know she’s on her way small blond kepah boy in Israel walking among ruins on stick legs humming does not know he’s on his way give them more than starbursts and gummi bears God it’s just not enough this time |
