Another year gone for her

With the date nearing, I wanted to remind everyone about the death of Mary Jo Kopechne at the hands of Edward Kennedy, a free man. A poem, and a time line of how long we’ve waited for justice.

How many roads can a drunken man drive,
when his passengers don’t arrive alive?
And how many beers did that man drink,
before, his car it did sink?
And how many years can a murderer stay free,
When he drown, Mary Jo, Kopechne?
The answer my friend
Is floatin’ round the bend,
Past the bridge, it’s floatin in the wind.

Someone, please, bring justice and closure for her family.
