Shades of Red ( Insight on the Kennedy Assassination)
As final breaths escape with strain
Eyes look toward heaven, shocked with pain
Tough metal mixed with deadly fire
has pushed its way into the brain.
Dark red engulfs what was once a man
It fills leftover space, like grains of sand
Dark red consumes all that’s in its path
Wetting its victims in a rose-colored bath
Light red, no pink, is quickly darker stained
The charming pastel color so easily maimed
No pink, just red, is all that remains
Up high on a perch, steady eyes watch
Searching for signs that it’s hit the spot
No one know why hands shot than feet fled
But some people say that the reason is “Red”
Bright red fills a heart with blinding rage
Nostrils flare like a bull that’s escaped from its cage
Dark red engulfs all we know with no beat
And now all the answers are dead at our feet
