Ten Lives In Alabama

There’s ten lives in Alabama, That lost their lives yesterday. An afternoon of bloodshed, With innocent lives at bay. A terrifying rampage, Three communities in shock. For two Alabama counties, Were plagued of random shots. In four different locations, A repeated tragic panorama. My heart goes out to the families, Of the ten lives in Alabama. __________________________ To the ten lives lost in Alabama, an appalling tragedy...
