        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."

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
