Rinse and Repeat (A Poem)

 A single assassin's bullet And many are calling it America's darkest day. I disagree. "Just a typical day in the United States" is what I would say. Where is this anger and outrage When young and innocent victims are left dead? Instead of protecting human lives We protect the Second Amendment instead.

We'll condemn the killer on every corner of every street. We'll hope. We'll pray. And then we'll rinse and repeat.
