What is this place?

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

his brother’s body.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

the bloody body

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

the lifeless body.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

the dead body

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

Mama is holding the body.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

Pulls the hand away.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

this is my body, which will be given up for you.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

her hands dip into the blood of her child.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

my baby. my baby.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

she flops down beside the dead, tiny body.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

she rips through yellow tape.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

she flies out of the murmuring crowd

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

somewhere his mother screams

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

don’t look, child

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

a hand covers his eyes.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

Portis still watching.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

Police boots trampled popcorn kernels into the earth.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

Salt and butter burns the mud puddle.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

his popcorn fell.

[Dan Morin @DanMorin2]

He couldn’t breathe
