“We knew the world would not be the same.
Too people laughed, too people cried.
Most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture
The Bhagavad-Gita;
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince
That he should do his duty
And to impress him
Takes on his multi-armed form and says,
‘Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.’
I suppose we all thought that,
One way or another.”
