REPORT
– For the victims of U.S. gun violence here and around the world
It’s time to leave
when guns grow on trees
orange blossoms cut down
Kiss the dream good night
alarms set
locked in gated housing
Take what you can carry
hands up
legs spread apart
stripped searched
by peacemakers
Run for it
don’t wait for the report
the dead didn’t hear the shot
that killed them
