Footnote: Like Any Rightser

Like any rightser,

you care nothing for those who

are trampled beneath

your parading jackboots, in

your obsession with your own

rights, and no concern for theirs.

 

Despite your brash poise,

vengeance is God's and He will

repay.  His vengeance

is perfectly efficient---

relentlessly efficient---

toward those who are not His Son's.

 

Ye shall know them by their fruits.

---Matthew 7:16

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The extension of the Tanka form by a sixth line is based on a precedent established by the great poet, Mokichi Saito.
