Private militia keeps a rogue administration in check
Banning guns is a serious regress
That puts liberty at stress

Visions of tiny corpses in one's head
Shrieking school kids soaked in blood
A mom's never-ending postpartum dread

Guns or no guns?

A question that brings a thoughtful tentativeness
Even to the most resolute intelligence
Set on the ideology of independence

I am not writing to demand a change
I am just trying to make up my mind
I do not have an ax to grind

I see the good, I see the bad
I just can't decide where I stand
When demands of citizenry and motherhood don't go hand in hand

Guns or no guns?
