What's for lunch?

Another massacre news met us 
Early this morning
My first question was:
How many dead?
Seventy or about
Was the answer.
And that was it
We've become desensitised 
The shock factor has disappeared
People are killing people
It does not matter where
It does not matter who
It does not matter why
We know the victims are innocent 
And the perpetrators are killers
It is that simple 
Another sad statistical update 
We all feel sorry 
For the victims and their families
There is so much we can take on
The media is out of puff
Can't get to frenzy any longer 
The state of emergency has been declared
Enough is enough
What matters mostly is:
What's for lunch ?
