Designer Violence

is society a symptom or the cause?

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

a nobody becomes a somebody

with blood on his knife

found his “moment in the sun”

by taking some ones life

Rupert’s boys know best

killers are made

they are never born

don’t blame the video games

don’t blame the porn

it’s a sick sick world

so you’d better not wait

buy a little security

buy a thirty eight

its time for violence

time for senseless crime

better buy a shotgun

and buy a little time

cause they get away with murder

and never seem to care

instead of giving them a slap on the wrist

let them ride the lighting in the chair

surreal poetry
