When?!?


Poem Artwork

 

 


 I only know~once again, 

we mourn! 

When will the hill 

stop death’s chill

~this rancid pill 

that doth fill…our land?! 

I only know~once again, 

we mourn! 

When will the hill 

produce the bill 

for in-depth grill~ 

to stop gun purchase~and stand?!? 

I~only know, once again 

we mourn! 

How many more graves 

must we fill?!  

How many more tears 

will turn heartbreak's mill?! 

While those under a dome of white 

ignore our nation’s plight 

to placate those who reward 

with votes and monetary frills?!? 

I know not one of those who  

left this side to meet~the Son 

 I know not one~large or small~whose life 

on this side is done 

I only know the~Love~of God 

that covers every soul~born! 

I only know~once again

oh, Hill! oh, Hill!

~we mourn!

 

Ps 26:10, Ecc 12:5

Prayer is too late, but your call to action needs to be heeded or the massacres by the deranged will continue.

Pistols serve only one purpose, to kill humans. Assault rifles with huge magazines serve only one purpose, to kill many people as quickly as possible. Even using these weapons in war is repugnant. Citizens having them for "protection" is a fantasy born of fictional dramas and sensational stories. Boys will be boys and men will have toys. We need to get over our childish notion of how guns are fun.
