Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Sum of a Gun

A bad guy with a gun - to stop,
Does take a good guy with a gun.
Ev'ry school needs an armed cop.
So precious - each daughter and son,
More than money and presidents,
Where armed protection is routine.
We have to use some common sense
In a world going ugly mean.
A school is not a time or place
For any gun, critics do say,
But an armed bad guy face to face -
A school needs more than just to pray.

Schools - where childrens' minds are fulfilled,
Not childrens' bodies shot and killed.
