Retribution, Before The Day Of Thier Absolution (villanelle)
Oh Lord, grant me the gift of retribution
Let my determination stay the course
Before the day of their absolution
Oh Lord, help me before my final inhalation
For my enemies I feel no remorse
Oh Lord, grant me the gift of retribution
Oh Lord, I ask not for salvation
My adversaries I shall unhorse
Before the day of their absolution
Oh Lord, for my foes the final execution
Eye for an eye, take their life by force
Oh Lord, grant me the gift of retribution
Oh Lord, protect me from retaliation
Sacrifice and prayers my only recourse
Before the day of their absolution
Lost humanity, I have no reservation
For the reprisal I shall endorse
Oh Lord, grant me the gift of retribution
Before the day of their absolution
