Little Guns, Big Guns

How nations and individuals keep us all fired up

If one brother, kill another
or one daughter must be fodder…

As distracted sorrows holds us
A money-making deal is sold us

Guns, are for two things, only
For child loss and widows lonely

And, a second purpose tells us
for wars, or politics — it sells us

Guns are so popular, so thrilling,
We need billions more to keep on killing
