Serial Killer
By Mr King
Christ Vice is a fire-starter like Prodigy!
I hope by the end of this poem...
You're not mad at me.
But all I have to do is strike a match in this tinderbox, and the whole
f--kin' country would go
up in flames...
And hell would reclaim all of its biggest names!
This is not for the purpose of gratuitous violence nor just to get ratings,
but...
If I were a serial killer...
I'd kill all of the biggest "stars" who perpetuate devil philosophies in
the minds of our children.
So much for the failed parental advisory system...
I'd kill Howard Stern!
I'd kill Jerry Springer!
I'd kill Ozzy Osbourne!
I'd kill Marilyn Manson!
I'd kill the "Dogg Father" Snoop Doggy Dogg!
I'd kill the "Original Gangster" / "Cop Killer" Ice-T!
And I'd kill Eazy-E, but HIV already did that for me!
I'd kill all of what was N.W.A....
Like Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, and M.C. Ren!
And I'd f--kin' kill Eminem!
(Or perhaps, better yet... I'd kill the producers and true financial profiteers
behind these guys.)
I'd do it for real, but that would be murder...
So, I'll just write about it with my pen, and attempt a mass collective
character assassination.
Oh yeah...
A while ago, I would have also killed Luke Skyyywalker and the 2 Live Crew!
Perhaps there is some insane extreme fanatic out there?
Who will do what I won't do!
And if you ask me if I'm stooping too low you see...
Then I?d say that I'm just an artist who wants to be free!
Maybe I should have exercised a little more social responsibility...
But then again...
I wouldn't be the first person trying to gain some kind of fame by stirring
up controversy!
Some may call this poem artistic suicide...
But really it is just Poetic Justice!
And if you want to kill me, Christ Vice, for what I say...
First, realize that only God can stop me...
And then understand also that it may be too late you see?
Because like 2pac Makaveli...
I may already be resting in peace!

I love how spot on this is about our media-consumed society. I especially like the line about the "stars" perpetuating devil philosophies in the minds of our children. Well done sir!

Also, I just want to make it 100% clear that I stand for non-violence in the traditions of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Gandhi... in art, I believe in full self-expression however... in whatever way 1 sees right for 1self... PEACE2U

It seems to shallow to be taken serius standing alone. It seems like there has to be a build up for something like this. Or a grand philosophy included.

Otherwise I cant think of anything but some of the names included in this. And there work. That is an achievement in itself, becouse that is a clear point that is easy to understand.

Also, to darkbride... thank you again sincerely for your thoughtful feedback... but with regards to the "cold cruel world" we live in... building community makes a difference and the power is in our hands my dear friend... Christ Vice loves you! Always!

Yes, Alluring Descent_darkbride... I agree with you... parents or the one parent must take responsibility and do all they can... but we must, as caring and aware members of humanity, work towards assisting the youth...

But then again it's not up to you to decide what is suitable for children. In some ways, sure, they shouldn't be allowed to view/hear these things, in other ways, it might be totally ok. One person's opinion should not be forced upon the world.

As members of the human race, it is up to us to speak out and work for solutions for the children... it is up to whomever is aware enough to know that they can choose that and have that ability!!! We can do it! We are the village! 1LOVE 1PEOPLE 1PEACE

Well...another arguement, of course, would be freedom of speech. While I do not like "Gansta Rap" because of it's unintelligent "fuck the ho and leave her" words and attitude, I also can't say my vote is to take it off the air.

Yes, those who "perpetuate devil philosophies" such as the "gangsta, player, fuck all the hos!" mentality etc... this is the reason I "kill" them in my art and throw their "artistic souls" into the Lake of Fire I created!

that is why I believe that it's the parents job to teach the children what is right and wrong. You can't shelter a child from seeing or hearing this kind of stuff so I believe knowledge is the answer.

It's my belief that this is a cold cruel world and not many people really give a damn about what the youth/children are growing up as. That's why I hate to see so many children brought in this world with ignorant parents and surrounded by hate.

You say it take a village to raise a child but in America...that's hardly conceivable. You have single and even both parents struggling by themselves without any help from friends, neighbors, or family to raise their children.

Second, in my mind, an attack on art with art in not an attack on art... it is an opening for evolution and distinction between various spaces... for example, what I do is different than attacking art with politics or censorship or religion.

Third, I may include religious anecdotes and political ideas as fodder for my message, but I consider my message that of love, intelligence, peace, common sense, freedom, and unity... Not of religion nor politics as primary focal points...

My poem The Lake of Fire should also clarify... also Revelations 19-20 (at the top of my homepage) which I artistically interpretted for my entire Christ Vice prophecy should explain more of why I came with such violent furiosity.

Fourth, artists do affect children's thinking... I am an elementary school substitute teacher in grades K-5 in Central LA and the culture is intertwined with the artists, e.g. the rappers... still its like the chicken and the egg...

I don't comment on most of your "religious" type poems. Mainly because I disagree with most of it so I don't bother. This, however, I felt the need to comment. Or argue rather. I use to be of the opinion that artists could affect children's thinking.

However, I've discovered that it is self-centered to think that we are the first to introduce anything to anyone. The world has been in creation for millions upon millions of years. Does anyone really think they are the first at anything?

In my experience, it is not self-centered to think that we are the first to introduce anything to children because we obviously do... also, with adults you might be surprised how much exists that they don't know that they don't know about.
