What Happened?
One figure stabs another figure.
What were we told?
One figure turns the other cheek.
What do we do?
One figure stabs the other in the back
What happens next?
Two figures return to stab the assailant.
What happens then?
Three figures return to assail those two.
Then what happens?
Four figures return with bigger weapons
To kill the three.
Which leads to?
Many more figures arming themselves
To kill the four
And then?
Vengeance is called
Against the many
For the killing of the four.
Which leads to?
The many being assailed by even more,
The violent math breeds to civil war.
And so on,
And so on,
One plus one minus one
And so on.
Ad infinitum…
