Uncruel and Unusual
uncruel & unusual
and on that day
every supporter of the
death penalty (60% or
so of american idiots)
was ushered into an
execution taking place
with hands tied
behind their backs &
eyes propped open with
safety pins or whatever it
took to keep their
goddamned eyes open
long enough to watch
the slow killing of those
they condemned
to die, with all the
self-righteous certainty of
a sunday morning.
