Analysis of A Gun
Antonio Lima 1951 (Azores)
An object for romancers,
An object for security?
An Object for fun.
One reason to own a gun!
A gun gets into the hands of a youngster,
Uhm, but an object for romancing power?
Yes indeed how amazing a seniority!
If a hand gun will be by,
a necessity for survival, why not?
