I don't think I've ever had occasion to want to seek revenge on anyone, but if I had, I like to think that I wouldn't. Revenge, especially with regard to matters of love, seems so undignified to me. Dignity is derived from within, and it's difficult for anyone but yourself to deprive you of it. It strikes me as the territory of knuckle draggers and trash that would stoop to the types of tactics highlighted in that link. I don't think poetry is a revenge. I think it's an external reflection on internal matters. If _refugee_ didn't tell us this was a poem she wrote in anger, would we even know? Definitely a much more constructive use of one's time than scratching a message into the paint of an ex-lover's car.
