Dead Again
Dead Again is the title of a 1991 movie that I loved. Popped in my head today and thought it might a good prompt. I hope you think so, too. Poetry or prose.
Dead Again
This school is the site of a deadly mass shooting. It happened so long ago the survivors were long gone by the time I got here. I fear the dead will fill these halls again.
The anniversary of the shooting is coming up. It is said the souls of those who died that day return on the day every year it is pertinent. They say if they return it is likely something is amiss. Every time they've returned the school has been closed and research has revealed the closure foiling plans to shoot the school up once more. People are starting to not believe in them.
This is what worries me; the spirits will come in warning, but no one will listen and tragedy will befall this school once more. There will be dead again. I feel it.
