“It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity — it’s inhumanity.'
“It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity,” she posted as a companion tweet., seemingly about gun control laws, reading, “The truth is, one nation under guns” and “What might we be if only we tried. What might we become if only we’d listen.”
Those words are reminiscent of the last line of her inaugural poem, which read, “For there is always light, if only we’re brave enough to see it. If only we’re brave enough to be it.”“It’s quite easy when you turn on the news to see a world that is vengeful and scarred and poisoned,” Gorman told last year. “That’s what gets the shares, the headlines. … But as much evil as I see, there is far more good. I just have to make myself willing and open to seeing it.”
