Challenge
You have the power to kill five humans a year, with no negative consequences falling on you. How do you use it?
The Consequence
I do not know how it could be
No terrible consequence to see
Blood on my hands
And the disgust beneath
Someone else's grief
To know it was because of me.
Life and breath
Beauty and depth
Stolen away
Because of me.
A denial of someone's dignity,
An offense against my own.
I do not know how it could be
No terrible consequence to see
Someone dead because of me.
