while i was busy at comic con






i take
two major breaks
from
philosophizing
about the overall unread-ability of certain supposedly college educated individuals
who claim
to be able to formulate sentences
into cohesive paragraphs. 



one
is our annual sojourn
to someplace
other
than here
the other being
that stalwart of intergalactic hootenanny's
yes
the one where even your granny
gets her crunk on
of course
i'm talking comic con. 



so it's over
and now i rewind a little
looking
through the muddle
of north american shootings
while i was away
it's one hell of a price to pay
but i'll still wait
for
america to once again shine.



after all
no one can call themselves truly divine
without first
cleaning up their own
infatuations with
all things violence and crime.






sjw 07/23/18 inspired at this very moment in time by cultures enamored with all things lending towards violence.
