Return to sender



Act or Thought
Karma ball rolling
Slowpy Rink
Good or Bad
Finds it's way back

Act of Malice
Intent intact
Dont react
Ability limited

Wish no harm
Calm before a Storm
Karma never misses
An Address
The way of the Universe

Act of good
An act of God
Pure by defenition
Pay it forward

Value power
Given by god
Limited in time
Tables turn
Always do

Revenge natural
Thought process
Akin to Alcohol
Gives you a high
Reality a downer

Karma gives
Interest calculated
Comes when
Least expected
Valued in a currency
Not issued by a country
Has it's own system
Delayed or Denied
Not fathomable
By Mankind

Instant Or Suspended
Postponed or Deffered
Vetoed never
Knocks again
And again

Get served
What you deserve
Sit back and watch
You have no Choice
Freedom in action
None in Repentance

Not for but by
Karma swings by
Create your drama
Live your Karma
Sow the seed
Thought or deed
Goes its route
Funny way of
Coming back enroute

Karma theory
Nothing to believe
Playbook available
Hardbound copy
Single Edition
Without exception
Comes to fruition

No one is watching
Biggest mistake
No witnesses
Your take
Dodged a bullet
Mental ballet
Envelope delivered
Return to Sender
Equal in size
The Postman always rings Twice
