Raid versus woe

Black flag(s) show up

on social media platforms

when potential homicidal maniac(s)

communicate(s) intent to strike

with ambush and ready
read - able, eager, and willing

to embark upon murderous rampage.

 

Prospective killer armed to the teeth

usually a young bucking male

between ages of eighteen and twenty five

wielding, targeting subjects then firing

high powered choice powered guns such as:

Bushmaster XM15-E2S rifle;

Glock 20SF handgun

.22LR Savage Mark II bolt-action rifle
or AR-15-style rifle,

a popular range of semiautomatic weapons.

 

After countless shooters on the loose
wreaking havoc vis a vis carnage

bloody death and destruction
indelibly etched upon consciousness
regarding every surviving person,

who hears and especially

witnesses the terrible and horrible news
anesthetized, brutalized, traumatized, et cetera

for his/her remaining existence.

Violent deadly crime spree shoots upward;

gun owners indiscriminately brandish

loaded firearms toward innocent victims,

and concomitantly excite anguish
purported in accordance

with first amendment relish,

yet proliferation allowing

free ranging banshee dervish

sans weapons of mass destruction

(mainly innocent lives)

inures citizens to appear standoff fish

U.S., and self-important solitudinarian

becoming comfortably numb

at regular headlines detailing

some lone hooligan a bit mish

hug ha, an automatic killer

methodically unloading with a swish

multitudinous cartridges attempt

oddly to even the score, a wish

to take revenge viz a personal vendetta
amidst the madding crowds -

utter oy vey - tis Yiddish.

 

Such proliferation of

high-powered assault pistols
graph berserk arc with surging blip

bipedal hominid(s) deadly grip

handling barrel as dirk in case the clip

doth miss the mark,

where siege mentality induces
nationwide sprinting infamy to drip

metamorphosing into igneous

malignant state with curled (Elvis) lip

mailer daemon hell bent

on besieging bait (unaware nip

 

pee nap noopy snapchatting beings)

bursting with deadly quip

with a barrage of bullets

malicious intent to spray;

killing machines delivering rip

paying deathly howls

amidst pandemonium, thence funereal slip

epitaphs etched on tombstones proliferate
taking souls to Hades trip
loved ones next of kin tragic loss

analogously suffering courtesy
stinging invisible whip.

 

More often than not

such brutal and nasty team
(short lived) nefarious scheme
unleashing angry people to rage and scream

directed at humble lettered people
like those comprising ream

member ring my hometown -
once evoked with pastoral meme

of Lake Woebegone minding
their p's and q's, when in the extreme

 

and out of the blue like a nightmare
interrupting an idyllic dream

a sudden bitta bing bitta bang
rings terrorist catcall followed

by red tide and river of bloodying
bodied of hue men caskets

rendered veneer of dark wood

within lies mutilated corpse,

pistol whipped, where mortician

daub with creme.

 

Soundcloud(s) boom(s) across,

thus occurs yet another
staccato sinister sonic thunder

across the pearl jam gray slate

of some formerly anonymous
name sake, which underling of bossed

son or daughter blasting

bombardment blitzkrieg shells cross
invisible trajectories shatter

at uber twittering, shutterfly speed,

the democratic rubric - rendered as dross

disposable lives of society
with senseless slaughter,

whereat somber silence
echoes nostalgia for the Mill on the Floss

when life seemed so innocent

against the gun metal gloss
wails of agony at another human loss
elapsing years tombstone covered with moss.

 

This epidemic re:

murderous love affair perfervid

with gruesome morbid

fixation allowing, enabling

and providing terrifying

trappings, whence went Pandora out the lid

anger loosed maniacally gun down

(in S-L-O-W mo) recorded by hid

den madding crowd, each person

locked in crosshair grid

source (perhaps pathetic plan

premeditated) employing did

da ding from flying bullets,

a coterie upping the ante vis a vis bid

ding fare thee well from odious

loading incendiary fiery clips.

 

Trigger happy homicidal maniacs slake thirst
finding me being verbally bullied

seem oh so yesterday

to take aim in billeted soiree

with deadly precision, and spray

with pump posse city,

a congregated engaged groupon

of people), with egregious pay

 

shunt and methodically

mowing down, a slew - nay

re: doth unsuspecting

victim aware - delivering melee

layered mayhem to this anonymous

American citizen as well

family and survivors, who lay

down their sorrows,

which bring revulsion and gray

obsolescence of faith in mankind to fray.

 

Death be not proud,

nor ought airtime allocated to these

heinous cavalier avengers

foe tee eight-hour special (proffers

twitchy finger itching to squeeze

especial easy access

to sophisticated high caliber compact

offspring doth please

manifesting those prize pride

 

killing machine owners never freeze

rapaciously with so much ease

lethal gimcrackery cutlasses

even a lil whippersnapper kite runner
unleashing whipping cords

will serve you more

lacerating more so than ropes will ever do

necessitate strong control

to stem violence as disease.
