Guns and Sympathy

Here we go

Bring on the low caliber politicos

for the long running hit show

Time again for thoughts and prayers

That played out lament

of our nation blood drenched

that worships and perverts

words written on parchment long ago

when low tech muskets were in vogue 

Let us bow our weary heads
over the mangled corpses
of the latest nightmare event

Victims of our sins

who would not have died
if only we had done our duty

to protect humanity
instead of taking the blood money
which paid for today's
homily of hypocrisy
