Executors Mare

Death assured, the shame of hanging
Teardrops, sighing as we say goodbye
Like departing lovers;
Murder is committed
Though couched in legality
”Though shall not kill”

For the freeman is not free
Whose life and in death
Is a TV soap opera


The people shall shout

Like the Jews during Christ’s trial
’Crucify him; crucify him.’
