London suffered a major terrorist attack this morning.
Bombs ripped through several buses and underground trains in a devastating, coordinated attack. least 22 people have been reported dead from the attack near the King’s Cross tube station. In 1987, I saw an angel at King’s Cross and wrote a poem about her. If real angels walk the earth (and I suspect that they do), I pray they are comforting the victims and people of London.
London after midnight In the tube to my hotel I see a young girl looking out the window pensive beautiful with wild hair and she has written "Jesus" on her white canvas tennis shoes I want to talk to her but a quick glance at my reflection and I know that she would be afraid of me so I remain silent At King's Cross the angel walks away and the train drags me deep into the bowels of the city Poem: © 1987 by Jimmy Pribble All rights reserved.
