bad Poetry for little Kids
I sat at my office bored to death
I had written about everything
that had crossed my mind
and I was in the process of getting blind
because of the staring at my completely empty
Microsoft Word "document1"
I come up with the idea of
writing for our future
for the kids
there should be an animal in this poem for little kids
there should be no explicit abusive language
no violence and LIES
and I thought
it could begin something like:
the elephant Jumbo thinks he's smart
'cause he knows that lying is bad
it's no good behaving like Simpson Bart
'cause he makes other kids sad
Jumbo knows that killing is wrong
he watched when the poacher killed his mother
he killed his mother and then he cut her into pieces
Jumbo knows that the scariest animal of them all
is that ugly two-legged thing called a man
that thing called a man that bursted swearing
and called Jumbo "stupid motherfucking elephant shit"
when Jumbo escaped from the poor shooting poacher
that thing called a man
that once upon a time
was a sweet and innocent kid
and i know!
that it comes as a disappointment
to read all this crap
only to discover
that you'll be some
serious scary shit
when you grow up
