This poem was trying to portray, getting shot by someone...and then...as you are going down in flames, you become a suicide bomber and take the bomber out!!! I don't know if that came across well enough, but that was the intention. Thanks for the visit. Never shoot yourself down, Richard.....

Especially in my case!!! Thanks, Drake. But this poem talks about taking people out with you...Yes, spite and revenge.
