Sixty fewer seconds,
If you read this here,
But beware what beckons,
And those you hold dear―
Or fear.

In sixty past seconds,
grasping your wife as lost,
gazing your child’s life ended,
with perpetrator bearing no cost―
… for your soul torn and bended.

Your sixty seconds re-start,
Decide what to do,
Revenge those now apart...
Or begin a life anew?

Sixty second choices,
Will decide your fate,
Don’t ignore the voices,
Don’t deviate from that you hate.

Those sixty seconds,
Springboard you next,
So choose here to reckon,
Your ultimate quest.

For in sixty seconds of time,
Revenge was taken sweet,
… shocking the culprit, weapon buried―
full, hard and deep.

And though pain followed crime,
You did for the moments, in reflect,
tangent the sublime … now floating in time,
and you’ll be fine, no more a suspect.
