Unspoken Agreement

Atanacio on Nov 11, 2010

Man faces the death sentence….

Nothing was left intact,

it was an impulsive act,

wagon-bound for homicide,

a dark and lonely ride,

ignorant was his defense,

it made a demand,

insanity took command,

he played his hand,

then the death sentence would stand,

family sobs,

no appeals,

death steals,

sorrowful nods,

a few priestly blessings,

finally accepting the unspoken agreement,

death for breath,

It is a great piece and the picture you used was perfect to go along with the poem.

If someone knowingly and intentionally kills another human being, then I am for the death sentence rather than sentencing the person in jail for life.

Hi there!
