Tragedy ?

It is not tragic

It’s systematic

.
Only gonna get worse

Till it fills the last hearse

.
Doing their president’s bidding

With a wink he’s only kidding

.
Of course its happened before

Blaming 45 doesn’t end the gore

.
Only shifts the responsibility

What is left of our humanity

.
Marching to a death cadence

Losing real self independence

.
All going to die anyway

Why not make it lead spray

.
Bullets are just another form

Bringing into play a new norm

.
Wonder why this is different

From an automobile accident

.
Just as many deaths occur

Check the statistics to be sure

.
One seems 2 B circumstantial fate

Other happens from learned hate

.
Both largely preventable

If we were only responsible

.
When someone’s loved one

Is randomly killed by a gun

.
That is the wrong target to blame

Instead of addressing the shame

.
In the way we treat each other

Over the issue of skin color

.
A thin layer of epidermis

Hardly worth dividing us

.
Won’t get any kind of relief

Until collective evolves its beliefs

.
Could so easily be undone

Knowing all have the same skeleton

.
To accept otherwise is naive
