Who You Are Poem by Randy McClave

If your first reaction when someone knocks on your door
Is to grab your gun and look for a war,
Well my friend you have an evil mind
Sadly though you're not one of a kind,
And you're unstable and you should have a gun no more.

If someone drives in your driveway from error or a whim
And your only response is to shoot and kill them,
Then I will say that you're a very evil person
And with a weapon you'll just worsen,
You having a gun would just allow only more bedlam.

If you say in owning a gun is your constitutional right
And with it you can defend yourself with all your might,
I would then say to the wrong people you listen to and pray
Probably most likely to terrorists or the NRA,
You only have a weapon because you wanna kill and fight.

If you say the only reason that you own a gun
It is for protection or maybe for excitement and fun,
Remember this the guns purpose is to murder or kill
And you do it for control and for a thrill,
And when you pull that trigger, it can never be undone.
