Amid the sun warmed grass
littered with laugher and life
all was shattered like a crystal goblet
once filled with life’s wine
now spilled in stark crimson
as rage and insanity
raced riot in marble abattoirs
Just one could have refused it to pass
one will and means to handle strife
but they were outlawed, so ill met
with ease across the line
the rage came swirling until done
it was able to come, to be
and in hindsight no answers seen from afar
Whisper words of sorrow
whisper words of grief
and whisper things left unsaid
But scream there will be no such tomorrows
scream defiance into the face of evil
and scream the promise to protect those not yet dead
A ‘gun free zone’ = A target rich environment with no threat to evil intentions.
