a look into some of those who kill, intentionally or not.
Pull flesh from fire, flames put out by the blood.
Crunch down upon fingers until they're nothing but stubs.
"Save the animals" screamed while suffocating children in mud.
Crunch down upon hands until they're nothing but stubs.
Drawing lines in the sand while down at the pub.
Crunch down upon arms until they're nothing but stubs.
Enslave some workers to make a joke considered a flub.
Crunch down on legs until they're nothing but stubs.
Kill the addict cold turkey by taking his drugs.
Crunch down upon torso until there's nothing but stubs.
Bleed out the parents, the friends, then finally the cubs.
Crunch down upon head until there's nothing but stubs.

All of you take lives because you're evil or dumb.
The thing you should've crunched down upon from the start was your tongue.
