"A Company Changed Forever"


 "A Company Changed Forever" by Melanie Albanese

 Über was once a company of praise 
that provided people transport on good and bad days.
But soon that changed forever.

You might be wondering, what happened one day,
that sent flocks of average travelers away?
Well, it starts with a person, like you and I,
who felt a little too trigger-happy that very same night.

The man started his "pickups" at 5:42,
but what was coming up, the passengers hadn't a clue.
Bang! Shoot! What awful sounds,
that were heard from almost everyone around.
After the seven hour shooting spree,
6 people remained dead, newcomers to the deceased.

After this rampage was heard nationwide,
people had know Uber was involved with this sad homicide.
It got people questioning the safety of others.
Wouldn't it be easy for a driver to kill my brothers?
So like geese in snow, people fled the app.
Leaving the system with no one to clap.
