"Getting it"

Perhaps the story was not tragic enough,
Or the reasons not enough for one to understand,
But enough for hundreds of thousands,
To assume.

And yet, the world pretends to “get it”
Perhaps to sound deep and thoughtfully, poetically lost,
Or to attempt to hide their evident misunderstanding
In a cloud.

But then again, maybe it’s best that way,
With no one, but maybe one or two, understanding
And when you find those selected few in the maze
You’re found.
