Disarmament

the war is over

                                     preparing pardons

                                        pass the peace pipe

Alcohol is the criminal. A lil weed only risks a lot of food eaten, along with tight-eyed giggles. Blaze one for the nation!

Decriminalization is spreading in the states too, Maureen, as doctors are finding more and more medical uses for marijuana. A timely and well-composed senryu!
