A Boy Went To Heaven Today
In a city, today at 11:am in a nearby town,
An elementary student took his own life down.
In sorrow and anger I do murmur and walk.
Children do not die of Covid, such b.s. talk.
The Unions just want more cash for teachers.
Children have falling grades, stop saying school
on a screen is at all sane!
The Union can pay for his final expenses.
He's not the first to do this.
Suicide is no way to go.
Kids need one another not a teacher's face on a screen.
Politicians should fund all suicides.
Lockdowns driving people out of their minds.
Who wants to live like an animal caged?
My heart weeps crimson tears. He was my grandsons's age.
This fills my heart with rage and hot tears.
But you and I know lockdowns will expand,
As socialism infects this great land!
What good is poetry, as children and adults end their lives.
Lockdowns will kill yet more.
Unless we stop hiding behind our doors!
We all need human contact and parents cannot take the place
of peers.
Our governors, with their fat heads up their rears.
CNN lies with death count fears?
Pray for his mother...no son this Christmas or any other.
No Birthday, no Mother's Day.
To Covid nonsense, he eternally....pays,
The moon sheds tears of lost young blood tonight.
May it cause us all a sleepless and restless night.
