Death-Row
by Richard Reed Jr
copyright 12-30-2005


Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
We're all on death-row death-row death-row
The worst of us formerly charged you know
Some of us get hit with a book judges throw
When put on death-row death-row death-row

The best of us there on death-row death-row
saints sinners and poor average Joe
"Well ye reap..." and so it does go, does go
Well what in Hell did we ever sow?
T0 be on death-row death-row death-row

Some obtain stays of execution
By shooting witnesses of prosecution
And surely though committing persecution
They'll buy more time on death-row death-row

Last day on death-row death-row death-row
You'll eat your last meal and will go will go
To a new judgment day for an eon's stay, although
You'll end up on a greater death-row death-row


These last words I write from the small death row
While waiting to be called to that big one you know
But it won't be a place that we don't know
Eternity is death-row death-row

Death row death row death row death row..........

Death Row by Richard Reed Jr. comments from Regina Pate. To be very percise, I would have to first hide my laughter, clear my throat, and wipe my eyes. Okay, here goes, death row, sounds so cheery, you make seem like a pleasent stay. I should be so lucky. I guess, I am lucky because from what you say, I take it I am already there, aye? Well, fine, I want a Rib-eye steak bloody rare, and some tater tots and wine before I die. And when I go to that death row way up high in the sky, I want it again, you know why. Beacause, eternity is a long time to go without steak and taters ha ha, oh oops, being very serious, here, ya know, I mean, you know. I hope Anthony likes this one, it's seems right up his ally, love ya too Anthony. lol. Great write, good job, thanks,

I too hear the echo, and it is a nice effect to the poem, because I can imagine men or women chanting something similar to this and the words booming around the room. In a way, we're all on death row, although we don't know what our last meal is, or when we're going to die. What will our crime be?

This would probably be pretty cool set to music. We don't have a Death Row in Canada, although I'm sure there are a few people that deserve to be on one.
I also wrote a poem called 'Death Row', but it is about my flower garden.
