“No notes,” the teacher said to us,
"and there's nothing you're allowed to discuss.
This is a pop quiz,
to write an analysis
of what to do when someone with a gun approaches our bus."...

Gun Violence A National Disgrace

Gun violence has become a national disgrace; 
It could be here, there and all over the place,
Plant seed,
To impede,
And we must come to gripes with and will face.

Gun violence is a real thing.
America arms herself.
Horrible sadness it will bring.
No matter how much supposed wealth.
It is detrimental to her health.
Frighteningly real. Bang. Bang. You’re dead.
Our streets and malls running river red....

One school shooting in Alabama
  And another in Louisiana

Here's a protest in the park
  That's gone on and on past dark

There's an angry rising tide 
  Demanding gun-violence to subside

Gun violence
Yet another - 
Madness!
When will it end?
Homicide rates are
Through the roof
And it
Continues
To rise
Mass shootings
Schools shot up - 
Now a new normal
Something needs to be done...
Now!
It's out of control!

Life is great. Life is grand.
Things are happening and she is bobbing to the music
Her feet are prancing.
Her heart is dancing.
How could things get better?
BAM!
One phone call
Annihilates every bit of joy.
Gun violence.
She never expected it to reach her family.
But now it has....

A tragic mass shooing has occurred once more.
This time, in a Boulder, Colorado grocery store.
Today, it seems there is no safe place to go.
Incidence of gun violence seems to grow.
The number of murdered victims amounted to ten.
It looks like we cannot keep this from happening again. 

From a news story found on CNN.com

Turns out that guns
lead to violence
and people killing
mostly just themselves
if the damn things
are just left lying around

However, tv leads
to vacant stares and
tv dinners
where the gravy
burns your lips and
the nuggets never get
warmed up enough

and if you eat enough
you can prevent gun violence
because your fingers become too
large to fit through
the trigger...

For the people in Florida may they rest in peace
And I hope the gun violence will cease 

Innocent people killed
Within my heart they fill

My heart goes out to families in need
May the stress on them be freed

For the people who died their names are honored 
For the people lives that were mad e harder

May they all rejoice today 
For Florida I do pray

This goes for all shootings 
I hope this poem was very moving...

Your dirty hands upon me. 
I tremble at the thought. 
Begging let my spirit free. 
The mad militia I have fought. 

Love still binds my heart to you, 
despite the freely dripping blood.
Your presence on a raging coup,
leaching my shell changing blue. 

Ripping the loaded gun so cold 
from your hot and beating hand. 
You tackle me to the floor I fold.
Tis a  miracle I land.

I am one and one with God. 
Through him the hand we have declawed....
