when you shot me in Arizona,i was 9 years old
i was 72,i was a judge,i was a democrat,you
had smashed plate glass with brick hate
Targeted me a la Sarah Palin hunt
gun over defenseless civilians
We see gun shops selling to Mexico
gang wars on borders,decapitating soldiers
Every bullet returns to sender.Wars cross borders
Who you hate may be random,but your victims become specific
They are beloved and innocent.They number more than your defenses
When questioning pathology(WHY did the violent boy(s)...
too late to ask the victims of drive-by hate crimes
Die once(projections) Die twice(mortal life) Die thrice(truth)
Casualties include you who will not stop more
by being less,and bowing to NRA
asking that more carry arms,strip searching innocents
and never finding home grown terrorists
because ye are they who terrorize-
bombing abortion clinics,killing doctors,
demonstrating against single mothers,shouting down all who disagree
This is an age of random violence/and targeted violence
How can the innocent survive this terror?
By being such peace that no arms come near
except the ones that hold,cuddle and kiss
These are the answers,panaceas,antidotes to fears
Starting here and now,with you and i,all wars will cease..
