Schadenfreude ~ Thursday, 7 November 2019

Dreams of wounded animals, suffering, 
reveals a sense of joy and the malice 
experienced by encountering harm, 
as if the real world were simply a dream 
made to exploit, enjoy and entertain, 
such lack of sympathy for misfortune, 

suffer the little children to enter, 
under the guise of innocence, heaven, 
for the wicked cast deep into the sea, 
for to offend the humble believer 
exacts vengeance for hubris, nemesis 
recovers the crime scene, offers what's due, 

trauma, the double-edged sword of neglect,
reassures each victim, "never again,"
and treats perpetrators as criminals,
under the codes of the justice system,
maybe as psychopaths, sociopaths,
abnormal deviants, or subhumans.
