Can you please explain?

How an act of terror is defined

A man battling an oppressor

Or oppression by a government



Can you please define?

What you would call right and wrong

Perhaps the same old difference

Between weak and strong



Do you understand?

That your life will never be the same

That the rules have changed

And those who hunted now are game



With might you march and trample

What dissidents hold dear

But your weakness and Achilles' heel

Is that you live in fear



The only fear I know

The fear of my own mind

For all the times I have rehearsed

The slaying of your kind
