death row

By donthideintheshade

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

the injection kills you or maybe the electricity you took a life or maybe two but do you need to die? is it necessary? i dont understand it all i dont pretend to but i have my opinions. so they say youre mentally ill they blame death on illness maybe its right maybe its wrong who am i to judge? i dont know. something i do know though mentally ill people really do not have control they cant help what they feel and they cant help what they do im not on the same scale i dont take lives but i understand you cant help what you do you know its wrong but theres nothing you can do you cant stop yourself you wish so hard that you could maybe i should testify maybe i could save a life you didnt mean to do it theyre too blind to see you cant help what you do should i try to save a life? would it be worth my time? maybe theyd understand because unless youve been there you really couldnt its not their fault that they are blind. You took a life they take yours then theyve taken a life surely we should take theirs? yeh yeh its their job bloody stupid job though maybe they are the ill ones? wanting such a fucked up job take a needle full of shit stab it in their veins, push the plunger, stap you in the chair turn the eletricity to 'on' and you die you didnt mean to kill and you didnt need to die Written March 14th, 2002 © on Mar 15 2002 12:57 AM PST   0 • 10
