Massacre in Michigan

By Anthony E

Education is suppose to be everything

It prepares you for what's ahead

But what is with a great education

If during which, many are shot dead

.

A school shooting

That could have been prevented

Parents and shooter

No one is repentive

.

Amazing to take someone's life

More amazing not to take blame or to care

Public Schools with private conversations

Administrator's only worried about their careers

.

He should have been suspended and given help

At the very first sign of trouble

Yet nothing was done, the buck was passed on

Now we live in a scared plastic bubble

.

When will the world learn?

Public schools more worried about logistics

How about the number of funerals?

School boards are blind to the statistics

.

Take cover, and call the cops

Student shooter, gun loaded and in hand

When is it ever going to stop?

An epidemic where no one takes a stand

.

Children may be taught how to think

It's a lesson that may be 5 minutes long

It's the school leaders and parents that have failed

To compassionately teach them right from wrong

.

Author Notes: Massacre in Oxford, Michigan. A school shooting where fingers are either on the trigger or are pointed at someone else.
