Stupid, Stupid, and Stupid
FOUND by Viviana Torrijos
in Brooklyn, New York
I found this in Brooklyn Heights two years ago; now, I know it was part of a handmade poetry book written by five-year-old children at school.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Sounds like a prophecy if things don't go well this coming Tuesday.
Amen.
Wow, those five-year old's have great gramatical skills.
What kind of world do we live in where 5 year old kids are writing stuff like this!? Blows my mind.
I doubt it was written by a five-year-old kid. You don't learn cursive handwriting until at least grade 3.
wow, that five year old has excellent handwriting
Definetly not a 5 year old's poem. Most likely someone made this one up. :)
That isn't the handwriting of a five year old. Kids that age have enough trouble PRINTING letters legibly, much less writing in a neat cursive. Some kid's parent wrote that. "See how soulful my son is?"
uh, most 5 year olds can't write cursive. I'd say this looks like something a bumbling 13 year old would write. Then again, most bumbling 13 year olds can't write cursive that smooth.
not only grammatical but penmanship skills; can a five year old write in cursive this well?
As a teacher, I can safely say that handwriting is more likely that of a 5th grader (10 yrs old), than that of a 5 year old. The thinking pattern suggests the same.

pretty deep stuff for a five-year-old . . .
Looks like a prophecy of things don't go well in Tuesday's elections...
I wrote stuff like this all the time (in cursive) when I was five years old.
My son's kindergarten class did a project where the kids sort of "dictated" their short stories and the teacher and teacher's aide wrote them down, then the kids illustrated the pages. That way the kids didn't get too frustrated by their (lack of) writing ability to finish their stories. (And I used to have a book of "kids' recipes" that was done in the same way - dictated then illustrated - which was hilarious. "Put the oven on 6000. Put in the turkey and gravy. Get a beer. Time to eat!") Could be something like that.
Is this really pensive political commentary?
bombs can cum?
It's really cute in a frighteningly deep way, considering Jarrod is 5. Do you notice how they decided to destroy the world with the bomb, but it only mentions them getting killed? Maybe they got what they deserved.
I love how little kids always end their stories with "the end"
But if they all had the same name, wouldn't it be confusing? I know I'd be confused if I was trying to blow up the world and my accomplices had the same name as me...yup, very confusing...
'Course, it doesn't really matter now, seeing as they're all dead anyway.

guys, i think when she said she knew it was written by a five year old she was joking.
I think it was done by a 6 and a 1\5 year old judging by my calculations. bombs cum the hardest.
Hi everyone, I found these piece, I know its from a five year old beacuse I actually met him a while after that, what they do at school is that children go in front of their classmates and do poetry outloud and the teacher writes it down, so by the end of the month they have a "book" for their parents.
This looks like a leaked copy of the shooting script for the new Michael Bay movie.
Says so much
Beautiful ^ ^
Besides the fact that it's written by a five year ole.. sounds like something my 14 yr. old brother would write.
It's possible that a five year old did write the actual poem, but it was re-written by an adult figure to make it more legible. I think it's pretty darn intriguing.
@Bad Girl - Please don't write something if all you have to say is something idiotic and childish.
No matter what age the child is, I think this is a great poem.
This is the kind of thing i wish i had been able to write such mastery when i was little. If he really wanted to, he could send this to Bush and get the whole thing funded, and presto, WWIII. Genius, shier genius!!
HAHAHAHA!!! This one's quite priceless!!!!
haha...Sorcha criticized this letter's grammar...and then added an apostrophe to "olds."
I think he left out the part where they excited the bomb, because it doesnt make sense how it came on them.
I hate it when 5 year olds do this kind of thing. its like...they are doing it to impress the adults. the adults might even start crying or something. then the kid gets this whole ego-trip thinking he's gunna be some kind of famous philosopher or something, because he doesn't realize that he is just saying what everyone wants him to say. agghhhhhh. I'M NOT SAYING IT"S A BAD THING TO SAY, IM ALL FOR WORLD PEACE, BUT AHHHHH!!! I prefer the 5 year olds that say things like "Fuck you". seriously.
The first day I read this I thought it was from the movie "Plan 9 from Outer Space" In the movie there is a scene about a bomb that destroys everything and how stupid humans are.
"Stupid Stupid Stupid" is an actual line.
...and things didnt go well, so hang on...
The axis of stupid meet their demise by their own hand.
While most of the criticism of the credulity of this note seems to be based on the handwriting, consider that perhaps the child dictated to an adult (I remember doing that in kindergarten).
