The American Murders League

The American Murders League *

So he was thinking

since we can’t fix it, or change it,

or reduce it, or damn near

do anything

do anything

____________________________________

Should we just create the

American Murders League

This way

Philly is already in third place

in third place

______________________________________-

Two Texas cities in the top ten

Chicago number one and NYC number two

and the murders just

keep on coming

keep on coming

_________________________________

Maybe we could create

a whole new world of stats

2 points for teenagers, 3 points for seniors

and ten points for children

and ten points-

______________________________________

Let’s call it The American Murders League

Figure out the initials later

All the “games” can be streamed

and this way

we don’t worry

that it happens everyday

every night

every

every
