Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Guns On the Rise Hero's Fall

Guns on the rise Hero's fall 
The preacher man ask me never to curse a thing 
I replied not if I have to curse one day 

Guns on the rise Hero's fall
The day gun was made 
Worth a curse 
A fast way to end a life 
Is not worth a Praise 
For all this shooting 
All this killings on before 
Our eyes say how much 
Evil was of that day 

Guns on the rise Hero's fall 
One man up 
Another man down 
Always a human minus 
A Gun rule
brutal display of no moral sense
An object of devaluation 
It made day I wish to curse

Guns on the rise Hero's fall
One man meat is 
Another mans Poising
What a day I wish to curse 
For this object is a morden
 vampire on the hands of our 
Morden empires 
So now you see 
Some people now falling 
So some other people raising
In power

Guns on the rise Hero's fall
Right in front of our eyes 
The brave fall 
Right in front of our eyes 
Our prophets are devour 
Who runs this cold world 
For either they are not human 
Or far from being human 
For the red stains of the innocents
Makes that day I wish to curse 
A day not worth a praise 

Guns on the rise Hero's fall
My ancestors was murdered 
Brutally by this object called gun 
History is a with ness to this 
Till now some where out there 
May be now while I still write in peace 
Some one is down again by this object 
May be tomorrow again 
Will be another gunshot 
Hmmm......what a day 

Guns on the rise Hero's fall   
I wonder if a gunman prays
I wonder what God he knows 
I wonder how a gunman sleeps 
At night 
I wonder who is his best friend 
For this life's gone by so fast 
Time after time 
Makes me answer to the preacher man
Saying if I was to curse a day 
It will be the gun day 
For our Hero's are right in 
Front of our eyes murdered by 
This guns!
Still it goes on and on and on.
