Until I was convicted
I did not think so...

At his trail...

Capital punishment

When a state
Kills a convicted murderer
The state
Becomes like the killer 
Murdering the defenseless 
In the toxic word 
Of justice...

Have you ever been convicted of a felony?

Clear Picture Depicted

A clear picture had been depicted;
Sins caused us all to be convicted;
Big ego we had;
Both sad and bad;
From God's church we were evicted.

ONE STONE


                                 An Infectious throw
                           An Accused victim convicted
                             Who throws? the One Stone

Information Had Been Substantial

All the information had been substantia,
But we heard was purely circumstantial;
Never fail;
Dollar trail;
Trump convicted on data that is financial.

like a ruminant you digest your own cud
you think that life has  things in store for you
baby, it's been game over long time ago
go to your cuffin and void your burdens
every action is still born
every thought is convicted to death...

Convicted witch
Who cursed the rich
Will strangle in
A rope-choked grin.

The gallows creaks!
Before two weeks
The duke she named
Collapses, lamed.

His crops decay,
His hair grows grey,
And two weeks more
His lips froth gore....

innocent child
housed
on a homeless street
crowded
with abandonment
and disparity
is found guilty…
sentenced
to life’s fear
that today
will become
tomorrow
and tomorrow’s
tomorrows
will become next 
week…and…
and…
what the hell…...

Convicted of raping 
Now new game he's playing 
He is sex offender 
But he changes gender 
So he becomes a she 
Then the law does agree 
The game he now has won
Sent to women's prison 
Has something gone amiss 
That lets him take the piss?...

one day i will not love you anymore

i'll forget there ever was a score

of the holes in my heart you tore

out of my head furthermore

forget you're addicted

and abuse afflicted

like jail convicted

contradicted

i hate you

i do...

Patiently waiting in a line
eyeballed an wary
harsh barking of subterranean cultures
standing weary and inured
to the rotten
fug
the rotten
oxygen

inside the high walls and wire, the weighted stone of
the convicted

existing like convicts...

“If I claimed you sexually harassed me,
Who do you think they’d actually believe?
You – the convicted felon,
Or me, with my large melons?”
“You…so I might as well take what I please!”

My enlarged heart
not bears anomaly ... lives full
of love ....
I'm a convinced cardiac
so I love from the heart
who makes me pulse strongly ...
I live with a festive heart,
full of songs and flowers,
always an opened garden,
a watercolor of colors ...!...

when i do declare
there is so much we should share
inhale all the air

had elicited
actions should be restricted
could be convicted

while in their presence
was in every essence
enjoy pleasance

had hesitated
things we knew were related
form abbreviated...

The guilt of a smile
The hidden scars I bare
Feeling all lost
You have nothing to compare.

A laugh seems strange
As it falls from my lips
All dusty and bizarre
Even to myself

Guilty as sin
Convicted more than once
The feeling of life
Is an unfamiliar touch...

T ame the animal in me 
E xorcise my demons
T ake me to your church 
E mancipate my soul...

Pug puckered up
Gave the baby a kiss
No one noticed
Not his mother, father,
Or his nanny, a miss

Pug walked away, satisfied and happy
A dog who is sentimental and a bit sappy
Baby woke up and thought something was weird
But had no knowledge of the deed,
So no culprit was accused, convicted or cleared...
