Crazy Joe

Crazy Joey.

He would make his fingers into a gun
the way kids do when playing
Cowboys and Indians,
then all day go around shooting people
for any infractions of what he considered
to be the right and decent way of doing things

from traffic violations
lane changing with out signaling
excessive horn blowing
bumping others' cars on simple
parking maneuvers.

Common sense manners
such as holding doors for people behind you
giving up your seat to an senior citizen
to covering ones face when sneezing in public.

Okay, sure he snapped
but he was killing an awful lot of
rotten bastards who deserved to die.
