VIOLENT DEATH

I dreamed I killed a man
A violent death
Without hesitation
Without discernable reason
2
It happened vividly
Quite a rarity
Perhaps from a past life
Karma might well be the reason
3
That might be why I flinch
At sudden movements
Someone remarked one time
On my violent expression
4
I’m willing to believe
My nonviolence
Has roots in violence
Should I give up on perfection
5
Perfection still exists
This world’s still a stage
We are still forgiven
Perfect is still our direction
