The Sacrificed

 

The Sacrificed

 

At the altar of the Second Amendment

The sacrifices were supplied.

From Uvalde: 21.

What gain was made from this oblation?

They were sacrificed for Ted Cruz’s wallet.

 

Still the altar thirsts.

 

For the Church of the NRA

The sacrifices were furnished.

From Club Q: 5.

What dividend from this offering?

They were sacrificed for Lauren Boebert’s Christmas card.

 

Still the church passes the plate.

 

For the congregate of white supremacy

There was made a gift in blood.

From Tops: 10.

What return from this tribute?

They were sacrificed for a parade in Charleston.

 

Still the congregate hungers.

 

For the right to own killing machines

Sacrifices have been made and made.

In Chicago.

In Parkland.

In Vegas.

What was gotten by way of these sacrifices?

 

They were sacrificed for nothing.

Nothing.

 

And I have nothing more to say…

Until the next time.

Until next time…
