The Massacre at Sandy Hook School
He killed the little children
in their classrooms and in the halls.
Their small bodies hurled down
from the hundreds of bullets
popping in and out of his guns.
He killed the children, so cruel
when one hears the words, then
the horror of the pictures
and the everlasting television reports.
How many ways can we hear these words?
He killed the children and a teacher
who gathered her first graders behind her
like any mother would do with their children,
and she was killed, she was killed as she
placed her body in front of her boys and girls.
He killed himself, too. How hard to feel any
emotion for a mentally skewed mind; he
killed the little children. We would
have preferred to take him alive
find all the torture ideas
from each of the parents, brothers and sisters
and friends to wage hate and wrath on him
rather than a fast single shot to his brain.
Too easy, too easy
