something I wrote a few months ago and felt I needed to post..

enough is too much

another report of another child
pushed of the roof of life
and i cry

another report of another child
dead in junior high
and i scream

ENOUGH!

this needs to fucking stop
before an entire generation expires
right in front of our eyes

because it's okay to bully
okay to belittle
okay to hate

when is the body count
gonna be enough
to make the world re-think

because the bullies aren't only the children
they have all learned these fears
from a world spewing hate

everything is scrutinized
and the cookie cutter must match up
because different means target

in this beautiful land
founded on freedom
from the persecution of others

but i am left to wonder
why
we now persecute ourselves
