At Some Point In Time
As surely as the sun rises,
one's compelled to wonder
if their rapacious cruelty,
their imperial hubris
isn't simply
the result of their past suffering ...
Nonetheless, what remains lacking
is their reciprocal regard
for everyone else's plight.
The centre at the heart of all things must hold.
Time runs out.
