GOING POSTAL

We all wonder why
Some people lose it
Some rant and rave
Others just shoot it


Just look at our lives
Nasty, brutish and very long
Enough injustices pile up
To undo even the strong


We are not only dangerous
As a military force
Each of us is capable
Of doing damage in 1000s of ways


Bullying, cheating, insulting, beating
Road rage, ignoring, not caring
Raping, snubbing, belittling and taunting
Happen every day to someone in the USA


If you are lucky to be balanced
And can let it run off your back
You are wise to turn a blind eye
Vengeance is so bad for your soul


Children and emotionally abused adults
Have it piled on high, can do nothing
To defend themselves except scream and shout
These are ignored, to the harm of many


One a day a person can take no more
Suicide is the first choice
It does not always work
Homicide is so effective
You hurt them and they kill you


Sticks and stones can break your bones
But WORDS can HURT YOU
Be careful what you say to people
Some people are hand grenades
