Rumi claims that anger reposes during kindness,
but sleep is not death,
while kindness anxiously awaits

Could our court
and prison

less judgmental,
by restoring win/win hopeful health?

Rather than punishing
shadowed neurodiversity
and cognitive limitations
and post traumatic stress disorders
and attention deficit hyperactivity disorders
and poverty
and lack of affordable self-medication choices,

Retribution
