Gun Controlled
“Gun control?”
“I controlled it.”
Bought the legal rounds
Bought the bullets screaming loud
The voice of NRA screaming
“That’s what makes America proud”
“Gun controlled
I used it.”
The second amendment
The senators on the hill
The guy who shot to miss and killed
The domestic settled on a hand gun
A boy caught between the cross fire
And now the highest figure
Written in the clouds
Burning at hell’s door
Take away these fire arms
No more.
The Guns Controlled
YOU controlled it
David R Mellor
Born 1964, (Liverpool, England) difficult birth, didn’t find my voice until my youth. Years of thinking I was nobody and treated as such. However, hit the paper papering over the scars. Found understanding and belief through words. I have been published and performed widely from the BBC, The Tate, galleries and pubs and everything in between.
My poems are autobiographical, others topical and several my take on life. Hope you enjoy reading as much as I have enjoyed writing. Please feel free to share your thoughts on links below.
