Can't Understand Poem by Lawerence Mize, Sr.

Can't Understand

Rating: 5.0


These massive shootings
Have got to stop its plain
Especially when
We know who to blame
This last school shooting
Was nothing new
Local cops had a warning
FBI too
The nuts keep coming
With their high powered guns
Rifles for killing
Keep students on the run
Why didn't "The Pro's"
Do what is right?
Put'em in hospitals
Lock'em up tight
Its not the guns
Why can't they see
It's dysfunctional people
Causing everyone to bleed
"March For Our Lives"
Is about to take place
Good old Mayor Catherine Pugh
Wants to set the pace
She'll put Baltimore's kids
Out in harm's way
Buses to "The March"
Free lunch to make their day
Can't understand
What can't be done
When a child set to kill
Gets hold of a gun
