300 – Why, Texas?

 When I wrote my last poem 
I hadn't seen the news today
Texas
That's why I've felt like shit all week
The Prophet must've known it was coming
Texas
I had cut myself off from the world
And I didn't know why
Texas
I randomly deleted all my social media
& gave up trying to reconnect with friends
Texas
I thought I was just getting fed up
Now I realize he was trying to protect me
Texas
But it still snuck through the cracks
And the evil found its way to my eyes
Texas
Why must Kids continue to die?
Why, Texas?
