Oh ...
The flesh and families
that bullets rend ...
much deeper wounds
to souls don't mend.
How can we hope
to end the strife ...
if monsters spurn
the worth of life?
How do we solve
a madness sown ...
when evil's face
is like our own?
And can our kids
thus reconcile ...
if closet beasts
now wear a smile?
Thus once again
we quell their fears ...
and lave the blood
with senseless tears.
