A man reflects on his past deeds...(A Pantoum)
Some People don’t do anything at all.
Krailer did.
He destroyed people.
Now…he had been destroyed.

Krailer did
Feel sorry for them.
Now he had been destroyed
And no one would feel sorry.

Feel sorry for them?
What queer a concept!
And no one would feel sorry,
Not for the beast…

“What queer a concept”
He pondered, leaning forward.
“Not for the beast,
But- For the greater good!”

He pondered, leaning forward.
He destroyed people!
But…for the greater good!
Some people…don’t do anything at all…
