Demons of the Westboro Cult

http://www.examiner.com/article/westboro-baptist-church-to-protest-newtown-when-obama-visits-on-sunday

*This poem was written to commit to memory the abject stupidity and blatant apathy shown by the cult known as the Westboro Baptist Church towards the victims of the shooter, Adam Lanza, in the Connecticut Elementary school shooting.  Westboro Baptist Church... I mean honestly.


A resounding "What the fuck?!"
 Passed through my mind
upon realizing this
was attributed to divine

intervention.  God's will
sacrificed little lambs
to undeserved eternity.

God, their god, their demons, 
their lunacy, spewing forth acid
and hurt and sorrow
in the name of judgement,
crooked justice. 

The self-deceived sons of bitches
and their bitches,
blind to the purpose of the cracked mirror 
they hold to the world.

To be expected.  Cults come and go,
but their insanity and trail of filth
mar history forever.
