Sure You Can Carry...

Sure You Can Carry...

A Poem by Rew

Sure you can carry and carry concealed   

muzzleloaders, for that real manly kick,

just like the Founding Fathers had conceived,

   

And the blunderbuss, yeah, it's a done deal     

to blow away George and his taxing Brits,

sure you can carry and carry concealed,

   

And military grade weapons just for the well heeled     

your twelve-pounder-ball, makes neighbours look sick,

just like the Founding Fathers had conceived.     

   

And for the ladies in bright Philly-Steel     

pursed flintlock derringers, a cosy fit,

sure you can carry and carry concealed,

   

And for the sporty types out in the field     

a fowling piece, six foot long, that's the trick,

just like the Founding Fathers had conceived.     

   

And, for the purists, all made really real,

Cast from iron, 'cept for the fancy bits,

Sure you can carry and carry concealed   

Just like the Founder Fathers had conceived.

I try to write a story using a fixed form as vehicle. For example Villanelles & Ballades. I try to keep away from the angsty/maudlin/stuff. But, if my work doesn't suit you then, please, pass .. more..
