  1. Interesting, as this is the second tinywords poem dealing with guns and ammo. It's horrifically sad that schools have to train to evade children and high school students being murdered on a regular basis. The statistics are not often collated together, but school buses have been shot and not just school or campus invasions.

    There are even bulletproof blankets for children to huddle under, as well as bulletproof clipboards for teachers.

    Powerful haiku!!!
