Aconitum Columbianum and a literature review of the ethics of self defense:

lyrics

Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis
Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis
Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis
Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis
Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis
Ave Aconitum, angelus mortis

Petaloid sepals hide the grim reaper’s face
Flowers vivid purple [OR WHITE]
Deadly look-alike for gentle Geranium
Nulla iustitia, non pax (Carson, 1987)

Two petals, perfect flower with a long-clawed spur
Hidden in the hood of the upper sepals
Terminal racemes and follicle fruit
Three witches fingers long green and pointing

If they had just denied body autonomy,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If they had just stolen children away,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If they committed just one genocide,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If through their deeds only one person died,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries
that are coming upon you. You have
fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. (James, 5:1)
Dives occidere, nulli di, nulli domini (Blanqui, 1870)

Leaves proximal petiolate, distal sessile
Cauline alternate and palmately lobed
Geranium leaves are opposite, not alternate
But once they're picked they look so much alike

Auntie Delphinium wears a fairy cap and spur
Less toxic, use for lice topically
Aconite wears the executioner’s hood
Deadly, use for fascists internally

If they had just sold the water away,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If they had just killed our planet for pay,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If exploitation had only begun,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)
If the police state had murdered just one,
It would have been enough (Haggadah, Maggid)

He does too much [FAR TOO MUCH]
His strong belief [BOUNDLESS GRIEF]
Have some tea, have some tea
Of Geranium leaf

His face is heavy from his gods work
His legs are weary from his gods work
His heart is aching from his gods work
His life is forfeit for his gods work

Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)
Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)
Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)

Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries
that are coming upon you. You have
fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. (James, 5:1)
Dives occidere, nulli di, nulli domini (Blanqui, 1870)

We will kill for those who cannot kill for themselves (Proverbs, 31:8)
From each according to their ability, to each according to their deed (Marx, 1875)
Follow justice and justice alone, so that you may live (Deuteronomy, 16:20)
From each according to their ability, to each according to their greed (Marx, 1875)

Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)
Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)
Ave Aconitum!
Whatever you did to the least of my sisters, you did to me (Matthew, 25:40)
