Unzipped Apple Core

Attention please, many fishes have been hooked by the bait 

They flutter their eyes, cross their legs and excuse the death rate

Desensitized by the detest, violence, and killings  

But then having the body exposed is way too chilling

Excited in all the madness, there’s no problem with all the gore 

After all, it’s in the history books and nursery rhythms lore 

Movies and television glorify all the blood lust 

It’s all good showing the body being blown into dust 
Haters and avengers will go and justify their cries
Self-Righteous amateur politicians with all the silly lies  

What is so horrible about verbalizing what love making is? 

Structuring different words to fail an anatomy quiz  

A banana cream pie is one of many metaphors 

Cultures unjustified rules adding to the list of chores
