No Mercy Here
They burned under mercy
when suspicion ruled and courts were cruel
willed to sleep when the black soaked in
and candles flamed
as each night tore another sin
silence soared the untamed green
no mercy here among the savage screams
those innocent souls
whose voice they told
no mercy here
I told you so
they spoke
they rose
from ashes of rage
and ultimate smoke
