#TheOctober2017Massacres!

O.G. Tone

It was like a very fine white mist

Of

Poisoness gas

That passed over the summit 

Headed west

Towards a desert 

Oasis

Hidden in plain sight 

Was an American 

Born terrorist

Fueled 

With hatred in revenge

After a brief 

Battle with his mental 

State

He knew how this

Day

Would end

In that day he drove

From his modest home

To the

Desert sands

He checked into his

Suite at the

Mandalay bay

Casino

He 

Acended down stairs 

To play the casino

There he lost majority of his money

So we know what started 

His decline 

There were 

22,000

Concertgoers

At

The route 91

Music festival 

On the

Las Vegas strip

Stephen Paddock

64

Lost his mental grip

He wanted 

Revenge 

Against 

The casino 

He lost a lot of money

Over the years 

That was hard on his male

Ego

He started to fall apart 

In front of people 

So he retreated to his room

To begin 

What was a number 

Of sequel's 

That

Would end up

58 dead

People 

He had the perfect plan

He though cause he was on

The 32nd floor

That people would ignore 

The pop like shoots

There wasn't a door near

To reveal his demonic 

Plot

Who would ever think of 

Bullets 

Raining from 

Heaven 

That's just an

Un-holly thought

Actually this was about to

Happen quickly 

In the police chief 

Couldn't stop all the shots 

People were still dancing in having fun

Unaware 

There was a shooter

With a gun

News broke

People were running 

For their lives

Lone gunman

Shooting down from

The sky's 

It went live on Facebook 

In real time

It showed people 

That lay dying

People scared

Running crying

People falling barely alive

The nation was stunned 

I was very surprised 

To hear 

Of a shooter with

A gun

I felt the tragedy 

Of people dying 

I know how it feels to watch someone

Die

In you can't do nothing to

Save their lives

All the hospitals in vegas

Were filled

With people clinching to

Survive 

At the end of his deadly reign

The gunman had died

In pain

He had one shot to his brain

This ends things

Dreams

Hopes

Marriages 

Careers 

Friendships 

Why did people have to

Die

This way

What was the real reason 

This is a travesty of justice 

I am still bleeding 

In my heart

Still weeping

The world 

Is still

Mourning 

The

October 

Massacres
