Uninvited Thoughts Pop Up
Many things you'd never do still invade the mind.
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both amiss and unkind.
Dancing on the graves of foes presuppose "redress."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both vulgar and excess.
Wiping grins off oafish lips presuppose "content."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both nasty and hell-bent.
Getting even eye for eye presuppose "requite."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both brutal and uptight.
Cutting down high flying louts presuppose "victor."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both vivid and obscure.
Reprisals for transgression presuppose "payback."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both awful and sad-sack.
Many things you'd never do stir dreams of "revenge."
Uninvited thoughts pop up, both evil and its fringe.
