If you seek violence
The gun will seek you
If you seek strife
The knife will seek you
Things sought after
Are found
When I am wrong
I am wrong in spades
Mistrust and malevolence
Cascade
Like bullets
But my wrongness
Is slow and worded
Defeated by reason
And forceful thought
And I recover
With an absence of blood
The black heart
Does not need expedient means
It needs time and reason
