Sense Sonnet - Acher

Hadiya

Hadiya - your name's in the news,
A Chicago child shot and killed.
Paid attention to as one who's
Hook for media was fulfilled.
Obama's second swearing in,
You were there as a majorette.
For media, this is a win
To make your death a better bet
To sell whatever spin is spun
About all the enough's enough.
The fact you were killed by a gun -
A min celeb - that's news stuff.

Hadiya, yes it is sad you died,
One child of many, Chicago wide.
