NEO NASTIES
DENVER
COLORADO
Snakes and worms and
loathsome things
Crawl and slither in the
channels of their minds
Adolescents with a
grudge against the World
no matter where they live.
A group of Neo Nasty
minded Weirdoes,
adopted the
symbols of dress of
Fascists S.S. over half a century ago
to express their hatred of their peers.
In black long
trench coats, pants and Jackboots
they cloth themselves in uniforms of terror,
meet in dark corners, arm themselves with
shotguns,
BOMBS AND HANDGUNS and
promise they will revenge
themselves, for the insults and slights, the
people they Hate.
For four years they
played their anger, racist and vile,
A frightful sucking on
the poison and venom
of their thoughts disturbed by isolation from
their peers,
who never admitted to themselves that it was
more than a stupid game, played by lonely
misfits.
Today all hell broke out,
no longer play, play.
As the school went about
their normal way
bullets turned corridors and sports grounds
into killing fields, cries of terror, anguish,
tears
dead and dying, scattered broken dolls.
Blood Bullets and Bombs,
then suicide
ended the bid for vengeance stored up for all
the years.
Now we lick wounds and
ask ourselves,
Why had we not
researched their strange actions,
their threats and anger against imagined foes.
So easy to buy assorted
weapons, no questions asked.
Even easier to assemble
bombs and find ammunition
Perhaps we others have
failed to read signals finally revealed
Where ever the blame
lies, We cannot afford a replay.
