Like those ideas.
I think if you want to go the "premeditated" route then "premeditation" might be a better choice.
But once you see either of the pre... ones the root meaning of meditation gets lost.
Part of what I like about the poem is the ironic twist it gives to the title, "meditation".
But, if going in that direction, if wanting to signal intent: I'd keep "meditation" and add a modifier to it
like "wicked meditation". Or, to keep the twist, a seemingly positive modifier like "hopeful meditation".
