Anytime I took revenge

or before I took revenge,

the strange thrill of murder

or killing the target in question

came into my mind,

but the good part of me conquered

it always and has always conquered it,

I have never killed

 

Well, it is the abrupt prompt

of conscience that pushes me

to write down this 100% truth,

anytime I took revenge,

I felt like a different person

I felt that it was not me,

but my inability to forgive

pushed me to carry out

some of my dastardly deeds,

downright evil,

 

I felt different,

and not only that,

I felt powerful, in the sense

that I had restored my pride

by getting revenge to the fullest

I felt like a demon,

immortal one at that

 

But after I had commit this sin of vengeance,

and I came back to my normal, good self,

I could see angels weeping

and as usual felt the anger of God,

angels and my good conscience,

asking me this simple question;

"Why did you let De-graft go,

and allow Sinister to come in,

why?"

My soul would cry deeply,

thinking why I had done what I did

 

Well, this is the best way

I found to set my soul free,

whenever the conscience

strikes me like a guillotine,

I shall write the story of myself,

in a poetic form like this

as I am doing now

this is the only way, I discovered

to remove all the hatred,

I have harboured for the eighteen years

of my life I have spent on this earth

 

This is my darkest side

and I intend to get rid of it,

I have foolishly mistaken it for power

too many times,

but it is black sin,

from this day forth

the fangs of revenge

that make me a cobra,

must be cut off by truthfulness

to make me 100% De-graft Afful Jr.
