Star Literature

Karma

Broken fences, broken hearts,

giant walls tear you apart.

A vacuum I abhor.

Universe left in chains.

I stand a spectator:

 a tyrant

            leaving scars,

a predator

            scavenging in circles,

a victim, a fighter

            bouncing back.

Karma haunts

Karma drowns

Karma rewards.
