There's genuinely nothing funny about the tragic murder of schoolboy Jimmy Mizen in a London bakery last year.
But there is something funny about this terrible, terrible poem of remembrance, posted on the Gone Too Soon website:
You must've heard about the tragic death of Jimmy Mizen.
Thankfully, his killer is now locked up for life in prison!
Jimmy just innocently went to the local shop - a sausage roll to buy,
And so he did not expect to die!
On that fateful date,
Into his neck was hurled a plate.
It severed an artery, so that to death he sadly bled!
What on earth was going on in the killer's head?
Well, Jimmy's father blames misdirected anger!
He went on to say:
"But it doesn't have to be this way!"
My friend reckons they should bring back national service.
Alternatively, engaging in outdoor pursuits would be my advice;
As this really sorts the men out from the boys!
For example, whilst at school,
Instead of playing with toys,
Several of us tried canoeing,
which had one school bully actually crying!
He wasn't so big and tough after that.
In fact he became rather a sheepish brat!
After being defeated by the challenge of canoeing,
Never again on anyone was he found picking!
Battling against the forces of nature,
Helps everyone to mature!
I hope this poem brings tears to your eyes,
So that you will now realise:
If we can avoid ever getting angry, it will lead to a friendlier and better society!
Now, in pain, Jimmy did not moan,
As he did not die alone.
Instead, he was held in the arms of his brother,
Which will bring some comfort to his mother.
Although, if to be gentle and kind ourselves we could train,
then, like Jesus- little Jimmy did not die in vain!
