Guns

Fifty-Nine Dead, 597 Injured by Gun—US Tragedy—We continue to kill each with abandon! Needles without thread Stallone without stones Marriage without love Man without his gun Romeo without Juliet Parson without parish Ocean without motion Man without his gun John without Marsha Taylor without arrows Pryor without fire Man without his gun Joplin without McGee Monroe without Joltin' Joe George Herman without Babe Man without his gun More dead, more guns Blood spewing forth, more guns Insanity embraced, more guns A mother pleads, take your guns to town boy A mother and 58 more plead, here are my sons, my daughters I provide them to you, use your guns, do what you must, kill them Guns, embraced by the ultimate lethal weapon, man…more guns, more guns
