How truly bad are you? Can we say, "Yes,
obviously, I am drawn to evil,
where I fantasize about the dark side,
taking a life, or just causing grievous
retaliatory action or harm;
until I do, I am protected, still
liberty and freedom of speech oblige
yet limit me as to what I can say.
Blithering idiots foretell, bullhorn
at hand, present and ready to relay
demonstrations of idle threats, the news
after the fact of a catastrophe,
release to the public the constant noise
engaged in by egocentric bold fiends.
Yet, I am certain my fantasy world
obliges me to state nothing upfront,
until I effectively play a role.
Cartoon characters make me feel that veiled
actions only backfire like a shotgun
negating my existence for two cents.
Wicked people with their FBI files
entertain magnanimous personas.
Sentenced to death or life inside prison,
abject felons seek out the personals,
yes, to connect with ordinary folk.
Yes, mass murder is wrong ... but is revenge;
even ordinary folk drink whole milk,
sipping or guzzling a glass like a sponge."
