eyeless in the morning sun you were,pale and mild, a modern girl.
taken with thought still prone to care
makin tea in your underwear.
if we could open our eyes and see in all directions at the same time
How long, LORD, must I call for help,
but you do not listen?
Or cry out to you, “Violence!”
but you do not save?
3 Why do you make me look at injustice?
Why do you tolerate wrongdoing?
Destruction and violence are before me;
there is strife, and conflict abounds.

5 “Look at the nations and watch—
and be utterly amazed.
For I am going to do something in your days
that you would not believe,
even if you were told. ”
