Had To Be Hung

Had To Be Hung How could he have been an outcaste? Must have been somewhere in his past To be forgotten, not remembered at all While from God, he will await His call. Him as he was should God try to take After all of the hearts he often did break On so many others himself would force With misty eyes all found much remorse. Had to be hung was proper thing to do Who never had been like me or you Horse leaper forward as it did lunge From world, his life we then did expunge. On his grave marker, what will it wear? Here lies a killer who never would care Looked up in sky and saw his soul pause Name on grave left behind was a lost cause. James Serious Mysterious Horn
