Deja Vu

the sentence,perdition
no move to acquit
on trial for offenses
hand tailored to fit

no pardon forthcoming
a curse she proclaims
then yields up her life
to the withering flames

and yet time never ending
as crime will avow 
forever impending
from then to the now

where in uterine slumber
a shadow appears
of a spirit encumbered
with malice and fear

and it's memory burns
like the devils own den=
God no!......NOT AGAIN!!!!!
