Me, I ...Hi Lupe, This was powerful, but terrifying. Me, I can't write about violence. It's hard for me to hear about violence, let alone read about it. I see it on the news and feel detached from it. I remember how I felt when I saw the twin towers on the news. I called the school about my daughter. They told me no, the school would not close. It was best to keep the children in their routine. So I sat, shocked and crying, in front of my TV for hours until I could bring her home and hold her tight. I thought it was the end of the world. It was surreal. Violence is insidious, terrifying, and unreal. When I watch murder mysteries on TV I know they will catch the criminals and I hope they will be punished for their crimes. That's all I know.
