To him a quiet day had thought
leaving his regular place of work
no warning in cross fire caught
strangers in shadows did lurk
so happy as he walked that way
bang pain on the ground he lay!
Nothing could ever be done again
a gun culture taken another soul
an increasing number now slain
society with a souring death toll
crime does rule our way of living
beings merciless never forgiving!
Here so many futures taken away
afraid to speak safety in doubt
emotions kept behind sad eyes
families in danger if found out
a vicious circle to be dwelling in
the barrier of protection is thin!
Without his dignity there he did lay!
