Popular Turn Off's (6)

'Our prayers and thoughts go with......
(insert name of disaster/suffering people here)'.

The phrase is used by people who don't pray,
and whose thoughts of doubtful consistency,
sufficient that anyone who does think or prays says
'they don't do either and will repeat the phrase
until nobody cares because nobody is listening'.

Fake grief multiplies and subsides
with same ease as fake relief,
whilst any enduring sense of loss
is understood more far more quietly.
