QUARANTINE LIFE: POETRY PROMPT ---A LIFE





I’ve got so many questions

Don’t know where to start

Stuff that keeps on happening

Really breaks my heart


Today, we’re all shocked and sorry

Tomorrow, worried and sad

Next week, story is fading

Ain’t nobody mad


Memories fade with the hours

Lists keep filling with names

Loved ones left to their grieving

Stories subject to change 


Victims painted as evil

As if they deserved to die

I’ve got so many questions 

I just want to know “Why?”


Why? 

Oh, why?

A life

A LIFE

Has no worth; no value?

Is there no shred of grace in view?

No redeeming qualities?

No humanity is seen

In their eyes?
