Johnny's Revenge
This is a poem/song I wrote. It's taken from the standpoint of a kid named Johnny. I wrote this after hearing about the school shooting in Germany, and how it seems that kids like me, or younger, feel that school is no longer a safe place.
Johnny was a young boy
When his father up and left
His mama started drinking
So he started thinking
Well Johnny had no one to talk to
He didn't have no friends
Relentlessly teased and beat 'til he bled
It finally pushed Johnny to the end
Johnny went home and planned
A mastermind of the future chaos to come
He took his step-dad's gun
Shot him and his mom
Then he went to school to finish his plan
Johnny got his revenge
He took his own life to finish the deed
Johnny got his revenge
Everybody's screaming and everybody's crying because
Johnny got his revenge.
Not too good, but I tried.

Sounds like a country song!

I agree with Andie.
That did make me think a little bit.
I'm just hoping the families are dealing with this well, and not as some "Oh no now everything's gonna fall apart!" kind of deal.
