the shattered glass of a windshield
reminds me of what I said
"i'd get my license just to run him over."
the motive
pain
the joke
the phrase
yetit sticks with me.
is it vigilante justice,
when you're fighting someonewho will never get what they deserve
in a court of law?
now
i'm older
i drive
but i no longer feel the desireto hurt and control others
luckily
i am not him.
-r.w.
