Title: I Don't Believe in Chainsaw Murderers
Post by: Q. G. Pennyworth on February 23, 2012, 06:01:04 PM
You can cite me your statistics
You can make me watch the news
You can take me to a crime scene
But it won't be any use

No matter how the corpse is cut up
I've already made my mind up
I don't believe in Chainsaw Murderers.

You can say I'm in denial
You can tell me that I'm wrong
You can choose to sit and argue with me
All day and all night long

But I hope that you won't mind
That after wasting all that time
I still don't believe in Chainsaw Murderers.

Don't bother with your movies
Or your television shows
Even you know all that's fiction
And most of it just blows

Because suspended disbelief
In these fictions that you preach
Breaks down when there's Chainsaw Murderers

I'm not interested in logic
Or your evidence or facts
I'm happy in my prison
Because of what it lacks

There's a reason I won't give in
We all chose the worlds we live in
(I live in the one without Chainsaw Murderers).

Clear theme, quirky delivery. Works well.

Edit; dw, it can take a few days for feedback sometimes. And sometines none.

I must remember to post when I like something instead of just saying it to myself.

Was good, QG. I didn't even notice it as a Suess thing.

I liked it too! And I'm horribly unfamiliar with a lot of dr Seuss--something which I intend to fix some day, but I dunno maybe when I'm ancient.

I would really recommend it for anyone who's learning English or needs practice for public speaking. The way he wrote really does a great job of teaching the rhythm and cadence of the language.
