I have killed in my life.
I've seen murder and I've grown to accept it.
My eye's are stained by the wounds of other men.

Am I a monster,
A felon,
A foe.

Or?

Am I a hero,
Gallant and brave,

Or just another man,
The product of a brutal system.

Parker is this suppouse to be a poem a story. Or what? Also felon is spelt with one l.
We get off to the rhythm of the trigger and destruction. Fallujah to New Orleans with impunity to kill. We are the hidden fist of the free market.
We are the ink, we are the quill.

This is a poem, a narrative style unique to most Irish poets like John Montague and Derek Mahon. The language is accesible and in most cases a story is being told.

Also, i accidentally inserted this into the "other fiction" section, and I'm going to move it ASAP!
