Hi Tiger, I will comment personally.


Terror 

You're just afraid is all,                                              that thing about fear. if only we could just bury fear instead of people.

that between the lines
of flapping white linens 
hung to dry                                                             my head went to fondest memories of grandma doing laundry
a noon sun asserts a light
immune to reproach.                                                I used to hide between the sheets and felt the sun on my face, safe there, clean

I see you squinting.                                                   this made me smile :Smile                                             

What you gonna do                                                 this part brought me to controversy
now that black is bulletproof                                      made me think about sackcloth                                
and ricochets sound                                                  and a graveyard of folks who trusted
all around you?

Get the bourbon                                                       not bourbon, but the metaphor is strong
from the gun closet
and pour it on the wounds?                                      sarcasm from the lips of someone frustrated or whose hands are tied



All I could see was a wonderful, beautiful poem written by a caring heart of a person.
Well, that's my take on it.
