From 'Night Sins'

" They found the body today. Not nearly as soon as we expected. Obviously, we gave them to much credit. The police are not as smart as we are. No one is.
 
We stood on the sidewalk and watched. What a pitiful seen. Grown men in tears throwing up in the bushes. They wandered around and around that corner of the park, trampling the grass, and breaking of bits of branches. They called to God, but God didn't answer. Nothing changed. No lightning bolts came down. No one was given knowledge of who or why. Ricky Meyers remained dead, his arms out flung, his sneaker toes-up.
 
We stood on the side walk as the ambulance came with its lights flashing, and more police cars came, and the cars of people from around the town. We stood in the crowd, but no one saw us, no one looked at us. They thought we were beneath their notice, unimportant. But we are really above them and beyond them and invisible to them. They are blind and stupid and trusting. They would never think to look at us.
 
We are twelve years old. "

~Night sins, Tami Hoag.
