PISSANT
So some little sawed-off *******
Gets himself a big boy gun.
He’s got a plan to make people pay
For every slander aimed at him.
He takes a walk on a crowded street
Looking for a likely victim;
The harried mother, the overdressed man:
Who will have his bullets.
How about the couple in that car,
Fun to shoot through a window.
None of these quite fill the bill;
This is the wrong location.
The only spot is back at work
They don’t know he’s angry.
He smiled when treated like a dork
And they deserve his vengeance.
He enters through the double doors
Walks past the guard while smiling
Strolls into the head-man’s lair
And shoots him at least fourteen times.
He saves the last shot for himself
But this time he miscounts
And security men now pounce on him
And hold him til police arrive.
Hauled onto a cop car’s seat
He has but one regret
Not that he didn’t **** himself
But that he didn’t **** more others.

A shooting a day keeps the peace away. It never ends.
