I’ve killed a lot of bugs.
Thank God I’m not a Jain ascetic.
Were I, my ahimsa would be lacking.
And maybe I’d go to a Jain Hell called Naraka,
tormented eternally by all the bugs I’ve killed,
perhaps for billions of years.
Of course, I’m just kidding, and mostly I
killed all those bugs in self defense.
But, imagine if what I wrote were true.
