Freedom

I celebrate my freedom
having won a war or two
having killed a million or two
I wear my victory
for the world to see…
but …
you wonder why
i can’t see you eye to eye
You are curious of the shadows I cast
You have no clue
You will never find
the horrors that hide
in the ghettos of my mind
After all, just one syllable
divides the victim
and the victor.
