Guns, Man and Death - Umaru Fofana

Gun, alone, not kills
Man, alone, kills
Man manufactures the gun
Man pulls the trigger on the gun

The killer seeing it as fun
Even with another man gone
Manufacturing guns may be part of life
But at the expense of another man's life?

Not sure whither art thou headed
How mankind has condescended!
Supplying guns to people
Who have holes in their jaws, not dimple

From Afghanistan to India
Where human lives are not dear
From Somalia to Sierra Leone
Where nobody is left on their own

Man, only specie, not for feed or defence each other kills
Even lower species enjoy each other's thrills
How sad, that Adam's children
Can become Satan's brethren

Umaru Fofana (20th century) Sierra Leone
