Perishable Man

The breath of life condemns the dying 
The creeds and credos conceal the living! 
The man who sinned must be executed by death? 
Sins from the lawmakers 
Abide! And you will interfere in the duty of a man 
They call themselves the tyrants! 
The trial says, GUILTY ! - without a sin 
He, is now a sinner, a betrayer, soon to die. 
The revolution of man forgets the sin of Adam- the sin of all man 
Our replica, as not the triune God 
Punish him death and you will be punished by it 
Death is not a mishap, it is fated 
The apocalypse of a man opts by Him 
10 by 10, His decrees, His chastises 
But in man to man, now, one will be perished 
The believers wicked by intelligence 
Suppressed by power 
Countryman, a blood to a blood 
Orderly be banished 
For guilty a man who perishes another man.

Death penalty is such a controversial topic, for such is always the case for those that questions our stand on issues that touch on the core of life itself. Excellent write here, kabayan. Congratulations with carrying it with aplomb! 7 from me. Kim Patrice:)
