Bullets are flying. Again.
Early and everywhere.
Bullets in your ear at seven a.m.
as you turn on the television.
Bullets on the screen
while you make your coffee.
Bullets in the news.
Bullets in your social media feed.
Bullets in America.
Bullets in Darfur.
Bullets in Kyiv.
More than enough bullets
produced in a single year to kill us all.
Bullets in every city
and small town across the world,
stocked, loaded, cocked, and ready
to be fired! Fired!! Fired!!!
All before the toast and coffee
have gone cold.
