Longing for the kill

 

I flinch, aghast

that anyone can be that ruthless,

that hateful, that cruel,

throwing that firepower at a civilan population

 

- but soon enough I realize

that all I want to do

is reach out and KILL!

Indeed! It's very hard to turn the other cheek, or indeed the first!

It is an automatic reaction isn't it. Your poem describes it clearly. I send out positive thoughts for people each day, and when it comes to the man you have in mind I find myself wishing for him to be released from this life, and not necessarily in a nice way. I think we are a small part of his Karma - if indeed thoughts are creative.
