Bruised Muse/Elated Muse

Dedicated to the memory of Sean Bell...Respect


Spirit needs lifting. Allergies, economy, Ted Kennedy...why do I feel so attached to the Kennedys, they don't know who I am, but, they are a very real part of me. I remember, in 1964,while rallying on Claremont Parkway, Bobby Kennedy lifting me up and placing a kiss on my right cheek. So many women were so jealous of that little girl who got kissed by a Kennedy. I remember seeing John-John playing Frisbee with his dog in Central Park. They feel like members of the family. I hope God hears and answers the prayers that Ted not suffer.

Joy does come in the morning. The GUILTY, DIRTY THREE who shot Trent, Joe and killed Sean, are facing departmental charges. Thank you, God for answering my prayer. Now maybe, justice can take its proper course. SOMEBODY should pay for a life taken away so violently and unnecessarily. No Justice, No Peace! Whose Kids? Our Kids! Whose Streets? Our Streets!
