As A Clam

Most people think
Turning the other cheek
As referenced in the bible
To mean be at peace
Don't fight back
And forgive 

But what it actually means
Is to give the opponent
Someone who is obviously angry
At  you for whatever reason 
An opportunity to express that anger

To let them fulfill their evil desire
And feel satisfied
Content at having expressed 
That pent up negative energy

Hence turn the other cheek

Or simply 
Just provide them a box 
Of girl scout cookies
For purchase

And they will be happy
As a clam
Having refused to purchase
One box
