Twisted

not again
yes, again 

twisted
another soul
shot out of her body
while strolling 
past a pretzel stand

twisted
this world 
assault rifles
more common 
than sugar and spice
twisted 
this world
where futures erupt
through the barrel of a volcano
pouring lava hot blood
through the streets
that should be paved with dreams
twisted 
this world
fight like hell 
for the unborn
who the fuck cares 
about them once they aren’t carried
in a vessel 
but tote a backpack full of promises
broken 
in this 
twisted world
yes, again
