“The news is rampant with death.

Its stench has been following me for weeks now…
my neighborhood
Orlando
 Christina Grimmie
Baghdad
Shootings
Bombings…
I don’t even watch the news.
We don’t have cable.
We don’t search the news online…

yet somehow it finds me…
Facebook mostly.
I used to feel safe.
I don’t anymore…And it’s not because I live in Philly. ”
