Why Mommy
By Malcholm Dark
Why
mommy,
mommy why...
did you promise to always stay
and watch
for me every day?
Why mommy,
mommy why...
did you
leave me by myself at home
without daddy, without you, all alone?
Why mommy,
mommy why...
did I find daddy's hidden gun
and play cops and robbers for fun?
Mommy why...
did you
allow such things to pass you by?
Mommy why...
was I allowed
to shoot myself and die?

Why
mommy?

I swear to god, if I read about another child that killed themselves with an unloaded gun, I'll take that rat-fuck of a father and shoot him myself...Comments on "Why Mommy"

Powerfull write:) well firearms are easy to buy these days and very difficult to handle. This poem spreads awareness that these guns should be kept out of reach of kids.thanks for sharing:)

I think its interesting that in the poem, you took your feeling out on the mother instead of the father, when in reality, it was probably the dads fault.

Such tragedy, and it happens all too often. I for one can attest to the father being neglectful. My dad always kept a gun in his dresser, but luckily I knew enough not to play with it. Some are not so lucky, and you're rage is completely understandable. Write onward.

I like how this pleads with 'mommy'... emphasizing her loss, her helplessness, when it's probably more likely that the father was neglectful, as you mention in the note.... well done, just had one on the news the other day.

Yes, a terrific point...it's always the "unloaded" ones, ain't it? A justifiable anger & sadness here, Malcholm....gotta admire this passion...an excellent point! Take care with the damn guns, people!
