A Child's Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge allegiance

To the discourse

Of the divided states of mind

And to the guns

For which they hold

One crowd

Under fire

Inescapable

With funerals and bullets

For all

In light of the most recent mass shootings I thought it was time to share this. Summer is coming to a close. Mass shootings are back in session.
