Do we bear the sins of our Fathers?

If my father is a killer who am I? If he resides on death row where will I end up? If he hates more than he loves will my relationships be doomed? If he damages all he knowes will I be abusive too? I see his scars on my mother all these years later Most you don't detect right away but all too soon they become painfully obvious My son bears such a resemblence to his father his smile, his laugh, his sence of humor, his charm many things he never could have learned but remarkably he clones every small detail So I wonder what this means for me? At what point did my father become a monster? What swich was flipped that turned off his heart? what triggered him to be so diabolical? What happened to make him a cold blooded killer? Another inmate will be put to death next week. This state is moving down its list closer and closer to his name, my name, slowly it moves to the top He is out of appeals and almost out of time Is this justice? will I feel bad? will I feel anything? Will I be free of the devil always there, on my back tormenting me? Or will I be "the" target the next now in line to be brought down to utter distruction? Will my son be safe? Is it in the blood line? Or all in the mind? Is it choice or circumstance? Or reaction, or learned behavior? I guess will see?
