Built in the darkest swamp of toxic rage
Or vented in an explosive outburst
Revenge exacted on he who is deemed
To be the recipient of ultimate blame
Reasoned and debated, argued and declared
Decision unshadowed by doubt
Perhaps slightly tinged and overcast
But fiercely defended and justified
Would the sun shine differently
Or the world spin off of its axis
Should an accountable party not be punished?
With other eyes and another view point
Seeing from a higher perspective
Could understanding be found
Solutions built in collaboration
And eruptions of peace and love occur?
