Poor Memory

By DPRK

Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am the lurking fear in the jungle of ideologies
Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am the hangdog diffidence, harbinger of miseries
Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am the Himalayan exception, the antithesis of hope
Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am the executioner with slipknot rope
Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am the Black Flame, and you are the light
Oh, yes, I forgot....
I am on the Left-Hand path and you are on the Right
Thanks for reminding me....
​And correcting my poor memory.

Author's Note:

Sarcastic response via poem to someone in college that told me I'm terrible simply for what I think, not how I treated the person. Won $100 in a contest for this one!
