Every time two people fall in love, God picks apart a butterfly
Death to Lovers!
Every time I see
A pair of lovers
Walking arm in arm
Or hand in hand,
I steal a child’s balloon
And pop it.
And even if it’s out of my way,
If I see two lovers
Lingering under a street light
Kissing,
I kick a puppy.
Hard.
It’s about balance.
Your arms, entwining each other as,
Eyes half closed,
You sigh each others’ names,
Are the reason
That I’m killing
This kitten.
I set the minivan on fire
Because
You actually went down on one knee
To give her the ring
You disgusting creep.
Don’t doubt my commitment
To balance.
…
The smell
Of your hair
Used to destroy me.
And I hope that he’ll realize
As I use this tire iron
To destroy
His knee
That this
Is about
Balance.

fucking great poem, dude.
And well, now you have so poetically said why I am such a jerk.
(runs of to go kick a puppy.)
Every time I read this poem, I marvel yet again at how funny, simple, and yet overwhelmingly awesome it is.
Heh, aw shucks.
