Even Crooked Wood Will
Make a Good Fire in Hell

Même le bois tordu fera
le feu droit en enfer
🔥,
Will de Kypia

In the schools, tribal warfare.
Mean girl queen bees tyrannize
the mudhen wannabes, warning

_________Only we get to wear red on Friday so if
________any of you bitches dare to show up in our
_________.color we'll cyberslime your slutty butts.

When the Slender Man orders them
to stab a classmate in the heart they
obey without a quibble or a qualm.

Smoldering losers are quick to anger and
dying to kill. Someday, someday real soon,
they'll make stuck-ups and bully-boys crawl.

__________…I plan to set a new world record,
________to slaughter more preps and jocks than
__________anyone has ever wiped out before.

______________My very own Columbine
____________in my very own hometown!

__________.Because I do want to get even,
_________.sure, but I want to be famous too,
__________.I want people to remember me.

___________..To remember and fear me,
_____________..now and forevermore.

All the ominous signs are somehow ignored.

So of course there'll be a massacre with
the blood and gore splattered around the
libe, all over the lunchroom, or in a study hall.

Who is responsible, who must bear the blame and
the shame for these wretched, these brutal acts?

We cannot fault the children—spawn of a
failed species—for being what they are,
what we ourselves might have been.

We share the rootstock that produces
such monsters. A common lineage drips
depravity deep into humanity's heartwood.

People like us, cowards afraid to act upon
our own demonic urges, should both envy
and admire these brave, doomed savages.

From a prudent distance.

I live alone in a remote and barren land.
There I cultivate my garden of bitter herbs,
grubbing a lowly existence far from their kind.

And mine.

No one is guiltless.
