I Hope You Die

All life is sacred? No, I disagree.

Whoever said those words never met you.

I should handle you as I would a flea –
Brisk elimination. You won’t change my view.

You will never hurt anyone again –

Look in the mirror. Who’s helpless now?

As blood hits the asphalt I’ll say amen,

Another good riddance to avow.

You denied all humanity and compassion

Yet for the same you suddenly plea.

Only those deserving will receive a ration –

I hope you die. I’ve no sympathy.

The only clemency as you circle the drain

Will be the fleeting duration of all the pain.
