Sutherland No More - a Proclamation

Sutherland No More – A Proclamation Sutherland Springs from the pages of my media feed, A story of guns, grief and the need, for no more. Sutherland no more. The innocent and the free sitting in their Sunday Pews, Little thinking they would be the news, on the door. Sutherland no more. The white squat steepled church reaches to the sky, The congregation and world asks why, whilst the tears pour. Sutherland no more. ‘Fortunately somebody else had a gun’, the saying goes, That was equalising those bullet flows, from ceiling to floor. Sutherland no more. Freedom to Bear, Freedom to Speak, Freedom to seek The solution to these nightmares in our sleep. Guns cause the rift and opinion must shift. When you’re gone, Will you send back a letter from America? X. ©Keith Murphy
