A Prayer for Alex Pretti By Hank Nuwer
I saw a murder on the news today.
The victim died with no time to pray.
His attackers came like bees in a swarm.
Their every movement meant him harm.
They sprayed, swung, slammed his head.
They took his gun and shot him dead.
They had what they wanted, a corpse.
They fired thrice more with no remorse.
Government lackeys gave him all blame.
Alex Pretti – his very name is their shame.
