Nightime on the Coast
It's a small coastal community I live in; quiet for most months of the year. It's 3:00 a.m and everything has been closed for the equivalent of a standard U.S. workday. The black skies envelope the silence... even the coyote and skunks are quiet.
Imagine what it's like away from here... where the barrage of gunfire still sounds; where the screams of injured might be heard; where women submit to beatings quietly; where children die of hunger...
It is time to move on.
