my brother’s gun in the lock safe condolence cards
—Roberta Beary
Issue 18.1 | 4 June 2018
A gut punch. Very moving and relevant and I'm sorry for your loss. And I'll comment as a psychologist with a specialty in this area —the research is clear and unequivocal that just having guns in the home – makes everyone way less safe.
Nice poem. Did you mean ‘locked’ safe?
can get more with a kind word and a gun than with just a kind word
……Woody Allen
This reminds me of some of Nick Virgilio?s best poems about his brother. Powerful.
A poem with emotional touch!
ambulance siren– smoke from the gun splits apart

Very powerful. I keep going back to it.
Very moving, Roberta.
