I wrote
a check today,
and, noticing the date,
put down my pen till I could say
a prayer.

Author Notes
I was at a junior high school assembly watching a comedy basketball team perform when the news came. Where were you?
If you are too young to remember, this was like my generation's September 11th.
I'm discovering some people don't realize what this date signifies - it is the anniversary of the assassination of U.S President John F. Kennedy.
