I can list the one by one,
Yet some may be just a little haunting.
How about a wife, beaten and left for dead?
Now there’s a fine example you see.
Now, he needs a bullet to his head.
Or a child abandoned by their mother?
Frightened beyond a doubt,
Separated from a sister or a brother.
A shame I say when no one thinks,
Think more of getting high,
Or gulping down alcoholic drinks.
They’re the one that need something,
Okay maybe murder is a little drastic,
But to see a little baby bruising…
Definitely deserves something.
Maybe a cheating spouse, woman or man.
I mean really why condemn one w/out the other?
It sure doesn't matter what sex of the hand.
Some really sorry people out there I say,
Having affairs, picking fights with the other.
Catching them in the act, in a most peculiar way.
Spread eagle with the same sex as your lover.
Now hey, I have no issue with the same sex,
Hell I am sure to think it a little fun I bet.
But hell no, not in my own personal bed,
Where lustful intentions will be wildly met!
Oh sorry, maybe a little flash back there.
Now where was I?
I know, an animal made to be treated fair,
A best friend to the old, a pet for a child.
A little whimper or wet spot, and its kicked mid air.
Scolded and reprimanded, it was hardly mild.
Battered, beaten, choked or kicked,
Not a inch of the poor pet had been missed.
Yes these here are just a couple of reasons why,
I would execute, no questions asked,
Yet, I do believe, they’ll get theirs when they die.
Author notes
I feel any harm to others deserves it, well thats the way i wish but my heart says, lving with the guilt and suffering they inflicted on others and the outcomes of what their actions has done, will be enough to kill themselves. Im not the judge, we have to answer to someone higher, so I may think these and want these but I would never allow it to take place.
Through darkness the light will prevail.

"Yet, I do believe, they’ll get theirs when they die."
