A moment of silence for Cecil; in a moment. First, a moment to reflect.

Let's have a moment's
Silence for Cecil (Ses'-al),
But not yet.
During that silence
Let us think about why
Cecil's life matters.
Was it because his trust was betrayed
And we felt a little responsible?
Or are we just so upset with what is happening
To the whole planet
In our name
That when something so patently disgusting
And immoral happens to an icon
Like Cecil,
We gladly wrap our minds around it,
Sign petitions, and inwardly set up a howling?
