The Homicidal Savior

carbon dioxide sweet to a flower
gulping it down

after I release its soft throat
having repented

I move on to the grass
whose blades take on a defensive posture

I prepare for a fight
I am no Wordsworth or Whitman

I do unto others
before they do unto me

with a shovel and hoe
I may yet save the world from do-gooders
