How?

How do we not see?
How do we not cry?
How do we not question
The very heart of humanity?
How do we standy by
While the slaughter happens
And not feel the icy chill
Of our blood running cold?
How do we stare
Into the face of the terrified
Into the face of the horrified
And we ourselves are not mortified?
How do we not reach out
To pull these children
From satan's lair
And rescue them
From men sold to darkness
