number two bill the butcher cuttings
nativist gang versus the dead rabbits
Gangs of New York though we could have
chosen the historical dramas climax
where Leonardo DiCaprio leads his gang

this film’s opening scene because of its
lasting impact the ancient laws of
combat we are met at this chosen ground

the city the remaining members of the
gang are chased into a nearby park by
the baseball Furies I’ll shove that bat
up your ass and turn you into a popsicle
