they happen, you know.
"worst case scenarios."
boy meets girl. boy and girl fall in love.
boy kills girl in a jealous rage when he's drunk.
i mean, he doesn't MEAN to kill her. Just knock some "sense" into her, let her know just how . . . oh, he doesn't know. just how IMPORTANT he is. get through to her, you know? get her to realize that, "hey, bitch! I'M THE FUCKING MAN HERE!!! I CARRY THE PENIS!!!"
yeah, those, "worst case scenarios." you know, like a dad buys a gun to "protect" his family, then accidently shoots his son when he sneaks home after a night of underage drinking. oops! sorry son! 16 years wasted huh? worst case scenario. so it goes.
of course, at least we can count on our leaders to protect us from worst case scenarios.
like iraq.

I love the sarcasm, also like the last line, sums it all up in two words. Thanks for entering!

I don't recognize this as a poem, guess it is VERY Free Verse!
I agree with it's Message COMPLETELY, including the last part.

I don't know
I don't think my poem was better than yours. I think yours is really brilliant. Well done. The ending is very powerful, like what can be said after those words? Power -fucking-full.

All too true
This is painfully true, worst case scenarios happen everyday, and you can't really trust anyone when it comes to YOUR life. Thanks for the comment by the way.

wow, i must say this is quite different from what i am used to reading. nothing like getting right to the point of something. i guess some would say you were rather bold here, some would say you were cold, i just say you're honest. enough said.
be well and be blessed

Powerful
I love poems that address these sort of issues. The ones that express the troubles in life, the pain, the unfairness, the injustice, the brutality, the honesty that doesn't really exist...well done! you certainly know how to get the message across with a powerful impact in such a simplistic boundary. Loved it
