"A scream rang out and a shot was heard

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A body fell in the road

Blood flowing out of his chest.

Another scream and feet pounded

Skidding to a halt, the child stared

Falling on his knees, crying

"No, no Uncle don't leave! Somebody help!"

A choked voice,

A tear falling,

A silent "I love you,"

A small smile,

And Death comes and goes.

A cold body,

A broken boy,

A dead uncle,

A dark night."
