I took up on a complex idea triggered by a prompt at The Reverie, and had me give birth using my simple minded heart to write you this piece of poetry. May the read touch your heart and explode into thoughts of the mind.
I bet you never seen last weeks Sensual/Erotic poem. You can find it HERE.
Guilty by Default!
Guilty until proven –
innocent upon death
Life’s eternity balances
in the hands of justice
Blind we see life through
the bars of a cage
jailed by prejudice.
The articulation
black and white bars
of the simple barcode
In blood red numbers
not yet tattooed
on the guilty victims
and the innocent villains.
Quivering mimicry
of a witches justice
As if kissing splinters.
made to Drip crimson
Rubies of accused DNA
the barren lipstick of
our devils perception.
