Thoughts & Prayers
I pray that the bullet that ends you
Flies swiftly through your tender body
That your soul escapes before it’s
Too severely scarred
I pray that your classmates
Can sleep through the night terrors
That numbed memories and misfires
Spare their molding minds
I pray that your tiny ghost
Haunts the halls of the White House
That the sacred second amendment
Is seared with your smiling face
I pray to every god
Of light, and wisdom, and peace
That this prophecy
May perish in your place.
