Paralyzed by tragedy
Stricken with reality
Our world is in chaos
As if in an ugly séance
We all cry and mourn
No answers in this storm
The world continues to turn
While hearts on slow burn
One catastrophe turns into another
France today, brother hurting brother
More souls crushed in an instant
Too close for something so distant
Too many lives shattered
As if no lives matter
No reason for this madness
Tears flowing not of gladness
We ask how to move on
With so many now gone
Last week it was brutality
Searching souls for morality
Many a badge gunned down
A proud but wounded town
At high volume yell and shove
“Where is the peace and love?”
