Corporal Nathan Cirillo, shot 3 times while on duty at the Canadian War Memorial by a lone wolf terrorist, in Ottawa Canada.

The funeral of W.O. Patrice Vincent, run down and killed by a lone wolf terrorist in Quebec, Canada.

Parliament in Canada came to a stop in October 2014 (no place is safe) and in the end Corporal Nathan Cirillo was dead, shot in the back three times; Nathan was on duty at the Canadian War Memorial (oh the tears), dead because a lone wolf terrorist went on a rampage, shot 34 times dead. Earlier in the month, Warrant Officer Vincent was run down by a lone wolf, men who killed because they embraced radical Islam, its crazy, horrible; on the news everyday are scenes of terrorist attacks all over the world, now, it seems France is an ISIS target, attacks heartbreaking. In the United States gun violence is out of control, so many deaths, until control is achieved innocent will die (I cannot fathom the beheadings); mass killings daily, today in France, a priest was killed in the name of ISIS. ____________________________ July 26, 2016, Poetry/Acrostic/Pandemonium Copyright Protected, ID 811-775-0 All Rights Reserved.

yours is full of sadness for the world and how we face terrorism much too often. I think that was great how you used the word, Constance. Oh, I hope to do this contest as soon as my weekend gets here.
