Jake Aller Poet Political Verse

Another Day, Another Shooting

Another Day Another Shooting

another day in paradise
?just another day in America
?land of the free?
Home of the brave

and guns?lots
 lots of gunshots 
 ?more guns for all
?cries the NRA

'yes another day?
another gun battle
?another white man?
who just wants to kill

the President
 sends his condolences
?Thanks the law enforcement
?for an incredible job well done
?It was horrible
Hate has no place? 

in our country?
and we will take of it
?and do what ever we can do

condolences
?nothing but false words
?empty words
?lots of things to do 

It is mental illness problem?
but he fails 
to mention? the words 
gun at all  
?not at all


and tomorrow
will be another day of carnage
 and tomorrow 
another day of sorrow
and tomorrow
another of empty prayers
tomorrow 
?never ending sadness


but he at least finally said
?hate has no role in our country
?nothing but prime BS?
in my humble opinion

he did not mention
?white supremacy
?his rhetoric had nothing
?nothing to do 
about this at all 

and so tomorrow
?I will turn on the TV
?and we see?
nothing been done
 at all

and the dead
?will remain dead
?the guns will fire again

?nothing will be done
welcome to America
?land of the free?
home of the brave

and gunshots
lots of gunshots

note: this may be too political and in your face but I don't care. I have had enough of this nonsense. We must stop the carnage in our streets!
