American Matters of Fact

when justice and vengeance collide
which is most righteous I ponder
or might it just be, a matter of perspective?
hmm
and I question this so
because in the land of either, or
greater than’s and less than’s
conquered and conqueror
one must prevail in this domain
as if a gladiator fighting for both
life and freedom, as entertainment put on
by the Roman Empire
because the line between life giver
and life taker, is as thin
or obtuse, as the line imposed between
man and woman
the instinct is what lies between as the determiner
a killer instinct or one of reciprocity
albeit to say, I suppose this must be
as simple as a matter of power,
and suffice it to say, words matter
in the matter of the spoken and written language
the architecture of sentence structure are hence
measured with deliberate and keen scrutiny
there forth being used to scrutinize
but in that ability, I’ve gleaned this to be
a matter of position
with all the lore or folly we covet,
and glamorize the message
the ‘period’ or the final pause cementing the context
but as we all well know,
the messenger draws the glare.
to candidly say what we all think
or have thought in someplace and time
in some matter as a matter of fact
as far as the messenger and their impact
this is a matter of ski, hue matters
this is historically hysterical matter of fact
stains all matters, as a matter of fact
but when in Rome
as for all things America
fore these are American matters of fact
