tim's Bits and Pieces - 76. Killer on the Road
See the family lying dead on the ground
Their crime that night going out for a walk
Was religion the reason for your displeasure?
Ironic your sin was not cause for a balk
Can we let him, among us walk;
the one who chose that day to kill?
Did his God send him, to take his measure?
Mowing them with a truck took no skill
Can such a wrong be righted?
Will an eye for an eye pay the cost?
Can he now repent in leisure?
Not words nor jewels will replace the lost.
Your ghosts will forever haunt us
Tears for the lost have been shed
Stolen from you the greatest treasure
From you was taken a life unled
**** RIP
