“Good Guns”?

Unsplash

Teens shot at a party, with four dead, at least.

The Wild West is back and has now moved Southeast.

Modern day outlaws with weapons galore

Have shootouts on birthdays to even the score.

When teens have been raised in gun culture by parents

It’s easy to take what’s assumed they’ll inherit.

Does owning “good guns” keep most families safe,

Or more likely be used to act out teenage rage?

How many young lives are you willing to pay

For “good guns” turned bad that kill everyday?

If birthdays were last days for your daughters and sons,

Would that change your mind about owning “good guns”?
