I gazed at the beautiful unsettling photographs -
I saw shattered temples, razed monuments, scorched wastes of stone -
Each photograph had been sold -
A young woman with an exquisite bob accepted a glass of wine -
The black clad creatives murmured in a corner -
The photographs were hung on immaculate walls -
Outside the gallery, the river rose with the tide -
A helicopter flew over the city -
Glass towers reflected the last light of the sun -
