Another Good Friday Lament

Death and crime.

"Adam and Eve didn't know the chaos and destruction they would bring into this world."

Young men die in a pool of blood
in the inner city. Tears on the cross.
There is no rhyme nor reason,
just more tears for senseless loss.

It is Good Friday, a day of prayer.
To everything there is a season,
just more tears for senseless loss.
There is no rhyme nor reason.

Police investigated eight shootings
here in the land of Spanish moss.
There is no rhyme nor reason,
just more tears for senseless loss.

Eight deaths in six days in New Orleans,
eight families mourn a lost daughter or son.
just more tears for senseless loss.
There is no rhyme nor reason.

"They need God. That's why so much is going on. They need God."
