Interview with Karma

A.M. Morgan
So you never thought you would meet me

Life was often kind enough for you to not have to greet me

But you broke a lot of hearts and played by your own rules

Now you can't seem to handle the unsettling news

You reap what you sow but you thought regret would always be a no show

You took for granted blessings as if it is simply a matter of things that just come and go

Until the tables turned you lived only by what your own careless efforts could discern

Now the truth is you are a cowardly lion in the face of lessons you thought were not for you to learn

But somehow you believe it all now and can see beyond your own selfishness

The reflection in the mirror speaks defeat

In an up close and personal interview you now understand the nature in which bad karma feeds

    Advocated for some. But a wake up call for many. I loved it.

    Man, karma is a monster. I always try to stay on karma's good side. Trying to avoid my time in class.
