Analysis of Mass Shooting War
Mass Shooting War
Mass shootings shown on the news screens,
Images of children running, women screaming.
Innocent blood spilled every day,
The wars of human society show his way.
The way of life and the way of death.
Man makes war on all that exists.
Mass shootings of his own kind,
War on insects that he calls pests.
War on rodents and birds and bees
Mass killing of what he judges as weeds.
What determines what is insane?
Mass shootings of 5 or 10 or more?
Or millions of innocents in a declared war?
