I went to a gun range once
With 6 men
I had never fired a gun before
2 were helping me
While the other men
Were handing me guns to try
One rifle knocked me to the ground
Left a dark bruise
On my shoulder
The men laughed
The handgun I preferred
Kept getting jammed
I wonder now if I was firing too fast
It jammed for the last time
And….
I turned to Kent and Jim
With the gun pointed up
Close to my ear
My finger still on the trigger
It fired again
Cutting through
My hair
The bullet
Cut a path
Through the canopy overhead
Kent ****** my hand down
While he removed the gun
Dead silence
Then everyone yelled at once
