_Two Lone Crosses_

What is this place?
What caused this sudden devastation? The
devils have ravaged this institution.

How many lost?
To rage to hatred and to loneliness
Layers that conceal a fatal disease.

Shock
Sorrow
Anger
Everyone has a finger pointed at them
Give us someone to blame-
What kind of parents are you-
Blind! Don't you see where the real problem is-
According to the Second Amendment-
No
More
Guns!

Meanwhile, peace is
hard to find in the little town. It seems
anybody could easily be next.

Two lone crosses
Put there by somebody who could forgive
do not advise, but only aggravate.

thanks, not many people are willing to put their opinions out there. Tragedies get igonored and put aside for fear of facing the responsibilities we all have for that which happens in our world.

A conspiracy walks in masks and hoods.
They don't reveal who they are

i blame myself for being too much like somebody else, never thought i would just bend this way
then a phone call made me realize i'm wrong...

wow... I can't think of anything to say except... thanks. I lost 5 of my friends in the massacre at columbine high school. it is still devastating, especially when I see other innocent children being killed in their schools by classmates who think killing is a game. these kids claim their motivation is anger, but it is unfathomable to me how 16, 17, and even (!) younger children can possess so much hatred. people try to point fingers, finding someone or something to blame. the truth is, I don't believe there is one thing alone that can take the blame. hanks... I was truly touched when I read that.

Wow, EnviousDarling. I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Thanks for sharing, and I'm really glad that the poem helped in its own little way.
