![]() Death RowA Poem by Tai Ryens![]() Don't ask me what's wrong; I'd rather be asked what's right.![]() I long for the days when scoundrels sat with solitude in death row; their own end being anticipated: pondered whether they would be asphyxiated; perhaps sedated by foreign venom injected through a rusted syringe; berated while being wrenched like an orange to see just how many innards they are able to squeeze out of their system: electrocuted in the chair and watching their pale skin singe. Expecting agony but giving peaceful smiles instead; for the justices could walk away with their heads, and still they would not mind, nor will their headless corpses scar; while the justices smile: for they have been treated like the very scum they are; like the very scum I am. © 2012 Tai RyensAuthor's Note
