And his feet walked a crooked line

His arms were spread as if...

Karma
Sweet soul of chastise,
Cometh like a thief in the night, 
Seeking to vindicate 
The tainted name of the innocent.  

The dagger of reprisal,
Pouncing fiercer than the rationale 
To strike the hands that aggressed
The heart...

Either unwilling…or longed for…
