Transformation
May 30, 2017
A baby is born
Enveloped in the warmth of his mother
He grows to be a child
Spending his days engulfed in sunlight
As a teenager
He learns to fear the wrath of those who brought him into being
The teenager becomes a man
When he puts a gun to both their heads and fires
That baby, the child, and teenager are gone
But the man is still there
Fear and love have been lost
Now only hate resides in his soulless body
That rage-filled man dies as he is, as he was born
Executed with a gun to his head
