A Double Shot

When bullets fired doubly fly Passers by will doubly die Murder mayhem in the town Two more victims spiral down One shot one kill or so they say Full metal jackets twice today Crimson stains on every round Two more victims in the ground Changes in the law are needed Congressmen have never heeded Once we pass it on the floor Two more victims never more

good meter, rythmic, touching upon the deeper pervasive social undercurrents - well expressed
