In Capital Cases
In Capital Cases
I once was a Christian who had been in Congress
And points of the people would always miss
Being understanding should be essential
But all that I did ended up inconsequential.
Was supposed to follow being part of crowd
Always being thought that I was endowed
By God to fulfill my now new position
Never putting people though an inquisition.
Was it Spanish, English or American for sure?
Maybe more then any of them can endure
Even in California many must have complained
For days refused by God and it has not rained.
Hotter and more polluted world has become
Why do we apparently appear as being dumb
And all the world's problems simply ignoring
When for all answers we should be exploring.
You take this trail and mine is over there
All those found by fools may only be fair
God is always in right and proper places
And can He grant death in capital cases?
James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
