karma

You’ll shoot a dog and call it mercy

but watch as a woman bleeds out slowly

Hating her for her body’s failing

while wishing she would silence her screaming

You’ll drown a sick pig and claim it was culling

claim it was necessary for the herd to keep on evolving

And then you’ll spit on the corpse of the bride you’re defiling

blaming her for your failing genes surviving

You’ll declaw a cat and claim it’s tempered for the better

only to hate her for failing to fend off an attacker

You’ll force a pitbull into a cage, you’ll bully and beat her

only to hate her when she inevitably bites you later

You’ll strip a woman of her power, you’ll defile and degrade her

and then you’ll wonder why she thinks all of you hate her

You’ll play god

You’ll claim you’re a hero and a savior

only to bitch about the mess we’ll have to clean up later

One day, you’ll be forced to face the judgement you meted out without respect

You’ll be forced to look into the eyes of your daughter as she forces you to repent

And when you have the audacity to beg for mercy as her mother once did,

I hope she leaves you to bleed out slowly as the ghosts of her ancestors get their revenge
