Have you ever
wished …someone
dead?
Is there in truth, one
among us Who
hasn’t?
Is there one among us
Who’s ne’er bitten
Their tongue
And wished someone
who is…simply
wasn’t?
Have you ever
Squished someone
Mentally?
In your mind reduced
Them to a gelatinous
Mass?
Have you ever recoiled
From ugly images in your
Mind?
Sure you have! !
Each… and every one of us
Has! !
Deny it? …
don’t even
Try!
Buried deep within
The back of your
Brain
Lurks the primal beast
That we were once… and still
Are
But the beast ne’er comes out…
At least… rarely comes
Out
Until someone…
Pushes us... too
far
