Slain Dog

You wanted to make a rapist suffer after he got out on parole. You succeeded but by doing so, your heart became as black as coal. He was paroled after only nine years in prison and you wanted to make him feel pain. Last night he went to feed the dog that he bought only to see that she had been slain. That man committed rape but his dog was innocent. I saw you kill the dog and you'll pay for that incident. I'm going to call the Police because you went too far. Now it's your turn to be arrested and put behind bars. (This is a fictional poem.)
