It's funny how tragedy
attracts me
not funny haha
but funny
bizarre

the weird cases
distraught faces
distract me
and this affects me,

perversely I seem to thrive
on human misery
and strive for
the ultimate
(dystrophy)

It's a burden
carrying a *******
for the big one,
Armageddon

but
when the World goes tilt
I'll have my hand in it up
to the hilt.

funny haha?
but only funny so
far
and then it gets spiteful

shamefully
I have to admit that I'm more than a bit
off key

tragedy does that to
people like me.
