On May 22...one morning in 1915
4 locomotives...black and brown and yellow and green,
with screaming bodies...the worst sight you have ever seen.

4 Children also died.

When bad stuff happens...the population wonders why.
Dear God almighty...creator of the Earth and sky,
will you please tell me...why did those children have to die?
