IT
HAPPENED ON A MONDAY
Each
had a plan of action
One
with pen and one with sword,
Each
believing he was right,
Brothers,
both determined.
News
reports were read and
Furthermore
They
said one killed the dreams
Of
many who, like fools,
Believed
it safe to think big thoughts;
Envision
change and
After
all
They
were just kids, two students
At
the local school; one who wanted
Love
to conquer bullying,
Stamp out hate, and so
Stamp out hate, and so
It
happened that he wrote it down.
And
on a Monday
he
read his words aloud
to
others who would listen.
He
shared his truth in voice so clear
One
boy, alone, he felt no fear
A
shot rang out
And
then another,
Victims
both the papers said.
Their
world impure; two boys are dead,
