The Gruesome Murder And The Popularity

i told him about the tragedy of a 63 year old gay doctor
who was stabbed to death by two teeners
inside the bathroom of his house in bacolod city

it was gruesome
as it was filmed and the killer winked and smiled
after the murder

the teener feels that now he makes it to the headline
and to the person with whom i told the tragedy

he simply laughed it out
he wants the comedy part of the horrible error

faraway from home
he says, there is no place like america
