Bang! You’re dead
Bang! The sound most people attribute to me…
Bang! They said he died, now his soul is free….
Bang, bang, bang!…the weapons of the cowards n’fools.
Bang! Bang! , necessary for use as a policeman’s tool.
Bang , bang how much longer will that sound ring?
Bang!, bang!, feeling like a man with this powerful thing!
Bang, bang she made everyone cry,with that sad song she sang.
Bang, bang what I’m used for , I don’t choose, people abuse
Bang bang they all dead, make a positive change, before we all lose.

I have just watched on the news
the lunatic shooting in Finland. Bang! Bang! You're dead! This is no game. Even in Australia, the guns on the blackmarket seem to be on the increase although life is a little safer here.
Thank you for your poem of statement.
Lyndon.

Thanks!
Yes, it really is a sad thing that though the gun itself can't think, the idiots using it
decide they are givers and takers of life! Thanks again for reading.

I am assuming the song was by Cher? a wonderful song by a favourite artist. A poem that has so much relevance in todays world Seems the rule of the gun wins every argument.Sadly i see no end to it. It is to ingrained into the way of life A excellent write Good luck in the contest
