A sinner kills a saint. A newly made sinner?
Honesty should reveal: much black covers the sinner
Much red, much black and too much else.
If you sense a story, your senses are keen indeed.
A sinner killed. That is not the debacle.
Should I thank him? The killer of the sinner.
The truth within the matters: murder
Righteousness, justice, black caps and beige shorts.

Embrace the sinner killer, sigh out the pain of injustice
Closing my eyes, knowing it is the only darkness right now
But I still don’t know if I should say the words
Make it official. For a deed that caused the pain.
This is my code, and it gives no aid for this.
Thus I say: “should I thank him?”
