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
