burying the guns

America,
Mothers are on their knees
Weeping.

America,
Childless women are choking on Anti-depressants.

America,
Fathers are struck by heavyweight
Paralysis. 

America,
At 6 she saw all her friends
Die.

America,
Twenty is not a number in 
Newtown.

America,
Burying young dreams is not
Democracy.

Burying the guns is.
