I Have A Sword Poem by Randy McClave

I need not a weapon that will indiscriminately kill a lot

While claiming to protect myself and my family is my only thought,

A rifle can also accidentally kill anyone on the spot

Sadly though, hatred like weapons are so easily sold and bought.



A gun can kill strangers from a hundred yards away

An automatic weapon can kill quicker than to God we can pray,

Besides war, who needs to kill many at one time I need to say

Why need arsenals for protection in our so-called Christian U.S.A?


I will always remember the words and acts of my savior and Lord

So, from my faith and belief automatic weapons I need not hoard,

To protect and defend my family will be my first and final reward;

I have a sword.
