In America
15 February 18
n America we send our children off to school to be slaughtered.
In America we send our thoughts and prayers as anesthesia for our sins.
In America we learn geography by ballistic pain: Sandy Hook – Columbine – Virginia Tech – Pulse Nightclub – Isla Vista – Las Vegas – Red Lake – Umpqua – Oikos – Casas Adobe – Marjory Stoneman Douglas – and tomorrow’s grief yet to be plotted on the GPS of death.
In America our right to bear arms often devastates our right to bear children.
In America life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness dies at the end of a gun barrel.
In America our love of guns overpowers our love for one another.
In America evil has become normalized.
In America the word gun rhymes with numb.
In America our hearts are full of pain. Again.
In America today, our Valentine was a bullet.
In America we have the right to remain silent.
And so it goes.
