Endgunviolence Stories

This powerful prose poem is a heartbreaking critique of the cycle of gun violence in schools and the systemic failure to protect children. Written from a place of deep grief and righteous anger, the poem contrasts the fragile innocence of the victims-represented by "light-up shoes in evidence bags" and "colored crayons"-with the repetitive, hollow promises of adults who claim they want change but fail to act.The heart of the piece lies in its exploration of time and memory. It exposes how quickly institutions "reset" and move on, forcing new children into the same dangerous classrooms while devastated parents are left trapped in an eternal, agonizing wait for babies who will never come home. It is a fierce, urgent cry for accountability, demanding an end to a broken system that treats human lives like a video game.

TW: School shooting/. gun violence. This is a plea, no... a demand to stop gun violence. I also have stuff about gender/self harm and sexuality.
