A love affair
That had gone bad
Drove the man
Stark raving mad
So he went hunting
And in tandem
Killed a man
He found by random

So I don’t know
Where to begin
Other than to hope
He turns himself in
So justice can
Determine where or when
Or whether his life
Should be brought to an end

The man he killed
And then uploaded
Onto Facebook
Never goaded
Him into taking
His precious life
Away from his children
And his wife

Mercy me
What’s the world coming to
When we see
Someone out the blue
Blown away
Before he even knew
Because somebody else
Had a missing *****
