this
is a massacre

words
so easily formed
so easily spread
without a second thought

this
is a massacre

words
strung together so easily
by brains or keyboards
into sentences dripping with malice

this
is a massacre

words
shaming people
about things they can't change
because god forbid they were born

this
is a massacre

how many deaths will it take
for people to open
their goddamn eyes
and shut their mouths?

because this
is a massacre
