Sad And Disgusting
They sat around laughing it up
Recalling their school days,
The time they put a firecracker
In a cigarette and gave it to a
Mentally challenged classmate,
A couple seemingly embarrassed
And uncomfortable with the
Recollection, excused themselves
And left, to whispered jeers and
Sneers of the rest of this self
Appointed in-crowd, still leaning
Against their school day lockers
As if they were God’s gift to the
Primate world, so much for
Maturing, evolving, hauling one’s
Sorry ass up a step along the path
To the realization that there is
Nothing positive about tearing
Someone else apart for your
Own pleasure, entertainment,
To make you feel better,
Their conversation moved
To social networking sites
Where they were doing the
Same to more people,
Sad and disgusting,
What else can
One say.
