        Your Gun

Go shooting up the town 

Will it make your revenge? 

Getting even for them  

They've been mistreating you 

That for a short moment 

Seems to fix the world 

Later on you'll be caught 

Or maybe at the scene 

Then you'll lose your freedom 

And perhaps lose your life 

Sons, leave your guns at home

Magaly has invited "us to create poetry or prose inspired by the following phrase: 'to stay creative, is to stay happy and stay alive."

( https://youtu.be/WlgoUlOkyzU ) 

John Travolta's big hit, Saturday Night Fever, made him famous in 1977.  That movie was our favorite for years.  The movie also made the song, "Stayin' Alive" famous. 

Bad Guys Don't 

Bad Guys Don't Win (forever) 

Have different ways, they than we 

But each of us have one goal 

Stayin' alive fits us all 

They cheat and kill (please not me) 

Good health's our way, best for all 

Nature's way works All is well 

But we're no match Guns purpose 

Going for rides Top is up 

When eating out face the door 

Driving the car Road raged shoot 

Stayin' alive that's for us
