The passion for revenge
outweighs
the compassion of forgiveness,
the eye for an eye,
the urge to punish,
to condemn, to get even,
to gain an upper hand
above and beyond reason
and the desire to understand.
Revenge, it appears, is sweet,
any excuse to raise gun or fist,
in this uncertain age of fear,
is impossible, it seems, to resist.
