You all must die! (Utoeya Island)

Despite it happening recently, I thought I'd write a quick poem about the tragic attacks on Utoeya Island in Norway. It's sort of like a Quatern except each lines has four syllables rather than eight.

“You all must die!”

This is our world

Far out Iraq

Near home Norway

 

No one is safe

“You all must die!”

Is what he yelled

To those scared teens

 

Firing bullets

With just one thought

“You all must die!”
Anders Breivik

 

His voice echoes

Through the dead on

Utoeya Island

“You all must die!”

Author's Note

The quote repeated throughout was the first quote that came up on Sky News. I was only informed about this through a friend who lived in Norway (thank goodness she's okay). Sadly many have died and the death toll is still rising. I wouldn't say this is a fitting tribute, but RIP to all those that have tragically passed.
