Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

New Zealand Shows Us How

The USA media is going to kill us all
Giving the shooters fame
We should be more like New Zealand
“A coward walked into a grade school”.
They never had another school shooting.

Gershon Wolf May 25, 2022 at 8:21 PM Definitely a lot of cred behind your words, Caren. We front-page these thugs, giving them the fame and attention they crave -- inviting others to seek the same... and on and on and on... Caren Krutsinger May 25, 2022 at 9:24 PM It is crazy to give them any attention at all.

L Milton Hankins May 25, 2022 at 11:43 AM Indeed! That's all I can say. No, I can say you are right. Their names should never be mentioned and hopefully they are buried in an unmarked plot in potter's field, for they are not even deserving of pity. Caren Krutsinger May 25, 2022 at 9:24 PM They should be known as "a coward" and nothing else.

Sotto Poet May 25, 2022 at 11:18 AM Karen, this is so nicely written, and it is very accurate. Nobody ever has the desire to be murdered or to have his kids killed in these circumstances. Caren Krutsinger May 25, 2022 at 9:25 PM Thank you Sotto
