Still too soon for talking about gun control, I guess...
Haven't finished cleaning - yet another - tragic mess.
Now is not the time to ask why 26 more died.
Maybe we're supposed to wait until the blood has dried.
At the rate that things are going though, there's one small hitch,
When we say we're too close to the situation - Which?
Were we still too close to Vegas? When's the proper time
To discuss prevention of the next mass shooting crime?
There'll be lots of "thoughts and prayers" and silences observed
But, we future shooting victims would be better served
If, instead of waiting, in respect for all our dead,
We insist that Congress passes gun control, instead.
Universal background checks... Is that too much to ask?
It gives us a fighting chance by helping to unmask
People who should not have guns... Like guys who beat their wife;
If someone is dangerous they should be banned for life.
