Numb

Court postponed,
but not bemoaned.
He’s in the hospital,
overdosed,
and comatose.
Liver failed
instead of jailed.
His mother is grieved,
battered exes relieved.
I am torn.
Should I mourn
for the young man
who tried to kill my daughter?
Should I rejoice
that he cannot kill another?
We all wait
on the imminent.
