so that’s your solution
click, bang
pull out a gun
and shoot ‘em
and shake your head
in disbelief
from your idle
state of awareness
your gilded throne
of good fortune
and your inability
to perceive
in the slightest
the concept
of others' grief

yeah
pull out a gun
or even better,
hang ‘em from their testicles
that’ll teach ‘em a lesson
that’ll teach ‘em
to be respectable
that’ll stop it
from ever happening
again

because it has
nothing to do
with anything else
nothing to do
with a moral
social
inclination
to burn that
which is intolerable
and yet
turn blind
to that
which is intrinsically tied
to the reason
why you want
to pull out a gun
in the first instance

no
it has nothing
to do
with anything
that you know anything
about
which is why
it won’t stop
while you
remain blind
to the real cause
of this
insanity
