Another mass shooting,
Another day of fear,
Another community,
Left in pain and tears.  

Another headline,
Another news brief,
Another moment of shock and disbelief.  

Another set of families left to grieve,
Another call for change, but will it ever be achieved?  
Another moment of silence and mourning,
Another reminder of need for constant warning.  

Another mass shooting,
nothing in place to mitigate,
Another round of condolence,
meaningful action can no longer wait!
