I worked late last night.
Drove home and took the long way home down Detroit. I love nights when it's warm enough to roll down the windows and let the music play. Then I started seeing TV cameras and police cars and people outside and I knew that something had happened. A mother and four kids are dead. How can people do this to each other?
I was supposed to go over to a friend's to hang out who lives around the corner over there but it just seemed to crazy to be out and so I spent the night in solitude, sat on my balcony for the first time all year and prayed for my city.
It needs all the help it can get.
I heard the sirens last night and knew that something terrible was happening, there were so many of them, all going so fast, but I never thought it would be that. Our city, she needs a lot of prayers.
