Son Of A Gun

Cocked my shotgun today

Barrel in tow

A slight click

A slight ****

Fired my first shot

Cocked my shotgun again

Barrel still in tow

A violent click

A violent ****

Fired an angry shot

Cocked my shotgun one last time

Barrel confidently in tow

A trembling click

A trembling ****

Fired a self shot
