No More

84 people dead,
No regret said,
More critical, holding on,
Somebody’s partner, someone’s son.

France stands for liberty, 
Which was wrought on Bastille Day, 
When the people overturned, 
The government who learned. 

Don’t let religion in, 
Pure democracy’s win, 
Grit your teeth and hold on 
To derogate ISIS and religion.
