Poem Commentary

This poem I wrote after seeing the documentary on the shooting at Colimbine High School. May the souls rest in peace. Also after having someone tell me about the threats that they had for my own high school.

High School

Everything happens so fast
You don't have time to think
Don't know what to do
But this only happens in High School.

Girls get hurt by jerks.
Who think love is all fun and games.
Who don't take anything serious.
Only at High School.

Threats are mad to kill hundreds
Nobody knows what to do
So nobody makes a move
Could this only happen in High School?

One stands up for what they believe in
While others stand down
So many believe in God
And others turn the other way
Why in only High School?

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
