as the change that violence brings becomes a refrain, things start to seem a little biblical:
It does me no good; violence has changed me.
My body grown cold like the stripped fields;
now there is only my mind, cautious and wary,
with the sense it is being tested.
There it is, the "test," the rabbinical idea that God tested Abraham in the sacrifice of Isaac.
from The Jerusalem Post: Roman craters and the soul
