Can you stare down a naked gun's barrel
and thirst for death's dark door to crack
open and hear the thunder and feel it as
your head collides with the floor and
blindness sets in; your final breath
drawing deep the salty stench of gun
powder? What would your final thoughts be as your wife then points the gun at her
own head?

Can you look into the eyes of a man who
raped and killed your thirteen-year-old
daughter and not hate him?

Can you love the unlovable?

Can you forgive Satan?
