Uvalde Haikus

 Uvalde Haikus


The blood of a friend

Gives her the solemn task

Of telling the story


Words that should bring tears

Are met with icy logic

No solutions here


The dead are children

No longer to be wept for

Soon statistics, bang


Buried in the earth

And in the hearts of loved ones

What weight piles on them


Second Amendment

Assault weapons in our hands

Oops, some dead children


The little bodies

Now unrecognizable

How do parents heal
