A handgun nearby
loving mother rests her feet

goblins look for easy repast
man with Glock fears not

her first bullseye scored
daughter's smile luminous
gun culture lives on

Cold clear arctic sun
Pierces the Cook Inlet fog
Just like a bullet
Warm wood Mosin stock
Nestles against my rising chest
Like a warm puppy

the bullet arcs home.

Recorded voice on my phone
He wants more money.

Tail upright, body frozen
I'd better not miss.

weeding my garden
a bear on the hill says "woof"

freezes brass in icy hands
that crunch under foot
deer season is gone
winter is the time for school
back to the high road

are united by the gun
keeping souls alive
