Exactly five o'clock And thirty people killed Bread never had this taste before This blood this whispering texture this grand apprehension....// A spine-chilling and heart-rending reportage covering a tragic moment of mindless violence and carnage of 1975 in Beirut. Thanks.

Inscrutable day this phrase, even if it weren't repeated, resonates. and the poem as a whole, describing ordinary people and ordinary things (which i guess most of us enjoy casually) , reminds us with a stab of the ongoing tragedy of beirut and lebanon. -gk
