GUN

Contributed by timmewolff on Saturday, 8th February 2003 @ 05:20:00 PM in AEST
Topic: political



Empty promises,faulse hope
They keep pushing
Expecting us to cope
Twenty million spent here
Twenty million spent there
While people go hungry
How can they be so unfair

People die in the streets
No place to call home
While species are vanishing
No place left to roam

Countries wage war
Destroy and kill
Is there a reason
Or just a big thrill

How long will it take
How many hearts must break
Before we realize what's been done
The blame has been taken off us
And placed on what

An inanimate object
A gun

Certainly gives a new definition of "weapons of mass destruction", doesn't it?

Tim, this poem carries your feelings very well. Good job.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
