It Happened again!

Part Two of 18

Nevertheless, though difficult it was to point a finger

As to the reasons why the man had to break and enter,

The judge still felt not property but his life could be in danger.

And he had no doubt the situation was serious

The man meant business

whatever move the judge was to make

the man will blast him away

at the slightest mistake.

He also came to learn that begging for mercy,

or bribing the intruder with currency,

whether he was to go down peacefully or revolt,

without draining his blood, be it within the confine,

Or outside of the toilet,

a train of thought ran through his mind -

and stood at the door that separated,

the two compartments.

Then, he shut both eyes and showered a hail of bullets,

in the direction of the man who pointed a gun at his fathers chest.
