Strangled Dictum
you panted for air as panic pained
as the young life in you drained
a ghastly gagged youthful life
strangled dictum…
and relatives chocked with grief
as friends shocked with disbelief
seeing your destiny you would not reach
strangled dictum…
a budding jasmine brutally butchered
a blameless young life beastly botched
a blossoming rose harshly hacked
strangled dictum….
