Thanks YJ, and verily the weapon of the powerless against the marauding wicked is shouting endless expletives at them from the rooftops of cyberland.  There is at least the immunity afforded by geography

LJD:
 
It is a nice and emotional naration. 
 


And I also repeat after you in chorus, thus:
 

[So we sobbed
So we cried
So we wailed
So we laughed
But we also shouted expletives
And even more expletives to temporarily drown our sorrows]
 
 
 Thanks for sharing.
 
Best,
Yero

The Lament
Bythe roadside
Onway to their village 
Withhands under chins
Sobbinggently, crying audibly, wailing sadly
Andrather incomprehensibly, intermittently laughing hilariously
Asif on cue, they then loudly uttered a succession of expletives
 
A perturbedoldie traveller 
Chancingon the melancholy six
Gentlyenquired what be the matter
Oneafter one the suspicion 
Thevery strong suspicion
Invisibleinvaders were about in their village
 
Mybrother’s body found on outskirts of village
Myfather disappeared from village mosque
Mycousin abducted from village football field
Myuncle in prison for telling stories to village chief
Mysister beaten for not clapping for distinguished visitors to village 
Mynephew with village chief for writing nonsense about distinguished visitors
 
Sowe sobbed
Sowe cried
Sowe wailed
Sowe laughed
Butwe also shouted expletives
Andeven more expletives to temporarily drown our sorrows
 
Butwe were called uncivil
Uncivilisedeven
Byothers also condemning the invisible invaders
Forshouting a few expletives 
Atthe traumatic invisible invaders of our village
Whatutter nonsense this
 
Theoldie traveller agreed our expletives we should escalate
Fordeath is infinitely worst than the worst form of expletives
Fordisappearance is worst than a few mild expletives
Forabduction is worst than a handful of expletives
Forunmerited imprisonment is worst than occasional expletives 
Forphysical abuse is worst than few expletives directed at the village traumatizer
 
Howmisplaced this ridiculous lament of our civilised and cultured men and women
