Haiku #163 - In Memory of Terri Shiavo..One Year Later
Written on 11:34 PM by Jack B.
Never forgotten
Just a year ago today
Cold-blooded murder
Value of a life
Measured by will of others
Not on inner soul
Who can really know
Inside an innocent's mind
Though we don't see it
Take words of a cheat
All that is needed to kill
While mobs urge it on
What have we come to?
Pray for who remain, Terri
Please, pray for us all

Also this is what I posted almost a year ago today on April 2, 2005 (as a matter of fact, it was one of the very first posts on this blog): Haiku #7 - For Terri Shiavo
