The kid has the dark-side
and that mirror twin
cannot ever be erased.
Automatics shooting in his eyes,
A 12 gauge shotgun,
fills happiness of scattered flies,
a day of reckless fun.

Bullies opened him up wide,
torture felt so beneath,
demons cannot ever hide
unfeeling of letting it slide
The many turns against one
and no scarecrow is ever wise
against an armory of his guns.
A poem about how bullying can make a victim so numb to a school shooting. They are belittled so much that they stop caring about anything and vengeance is the only thing on their mind. I don't understand why Schools do literally almost nothing about bullied students. It leads to bloodshed such as this kid seeing his class-mates as enemies in a video-game after long prolonged bullying.

Rhyming scheme of stanzas one and two is last word of stanza one, first line will end with rhyme of last word of Stanza two, first line and so on.....

scarecrow reference is of freezing up.

Babe tell what's wrong with me
Voices pierce my skull
I pray to god that hell help me
I guess I'm wrong
They say gods actually helping me
What's going on
Seems like the devils on my shoulder while gods in my mental
Used to be a opioid adduct used **** with Norco
Hearing voices at night telling me wrong not right
But its right to be wrong but wrong to be right But that's all too political right
Whites killing blacks than  blacks killing whites
School shootings Got parents paranoid when they say
Mom i promise I'll be fine

Were all god's children why do we got to fight
Another topic why do women not have rights
School taught us from a early age
My body my rights
So why are politics
Saying abortions' are just no right
When a parent isn't ready they are not ready
Save the child abuse, emotion abuse
The therapy and pills that consume
Otherwise there be more caskets
Than baby shower baskets
In our life

I'm sorry for every one struggling with abuse/racism/sexisms'/and to all the parents that lost their children in the school shootings. My condolences go to you… I'm sorry
...get this trending.. these are real problems in the world and people need to come to the realizations that these things are not right.

I pledge allegiance
To the discourse
Of the divided states of mind
And to the guns
For which they hold
One crowd
Under fire
Inescapable
With funerals and bullets
For all
In light of the most recent mass shootings I thought it was time to share this. Summer is coming to a close. Mass shootings are back in session.
