I wrote this post back in November 2012 after the school Massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School. There have been more massacres since. Nothing has changed nothing has been done… WHY?
So I am going to post it again six years on, how many more times will I have to post it?
Watch the wall my Darlings.
Watch the wall my darlings as the gunman passes by, hush now everyone he will double back and kill us if he hears you cry.
No I don’t think he cares that guns are not allowed and I know he will not stop to think before firing into a crowd.
Try not to whimper as he will hear that too he has shot your little friends for less and he will do the same to you.
Here, cuddled up to me my darlings lets all play sleeping lions please keep calm or we will become more statistics in this crime.
Yes those are your friends my darlings but we cannot help them now. You are in my care here and to keep you safe I vow .
Who is he is my darlings I have no idea, but we need not think of him, he is of no consequence my dear.
What is important is that you stay here with me and make no noise for him to hear.
Oh! yes. Watch the wall my darlings as the gunman passes by,
Hush now everyone, he will double back and kill us if he hears you cry.

In light of the shooting in Newton America I wrote the above poem. I wrote it out of respect for the teachers and children that were murdered and all the relatives left behind to wonder why.
The media should not give the murder any air time he should should not be named . This only encourages the next mad man or woman to out do him. Gun laws need to be stricter and no one needs a gun in their home. Mental health needs to have more funds pumped into it so these people can be found and treated before they cause such grief.
Lets us not forget the first victim his mother. 14th December 2012
Another year another tragedy just one of many.
2018.
