poem is written

and on and on and on.......
newtown has proven once more that
what's going around is coming around
and these twenty-eight slain are
twenty-eight more reasons
that i am a communist
calling for the indictments
the trials
the findings of guilty
the removal from our midst
of those who knowinglly
and willfully make available
for whatever the market would bear
the weapons of mass destruction
of our children the world over
the murder of adults who would
protect the children
indict! try! remove
the gangsters and
their organized crime
called capitalism
