Judgment passed

Punishment meted
Criminal is the label
Dead is the sentence
Price of the soul
Is but a signature away!!
Where the hell is God?
When judges can growl law?
And, rope hangs the criminal
But, not the crime.
Where the hell is God?
When judges can growl law?

powerful words... I'd be interested in the context within which you wrote this poem.
ReplyDeleteA thought-provoking poem, Cy. Love it...I should share it with the attorney I work for. :)
ReplyDeleteI have/had three judges in my family....None had the chance to dictate capital punishment, Luckily :)
ReplyDelete"Where the hell is God?" -- hell or heaven God is not so much anywhere as it is within you....i believe
As sage, I too am interested to know the context, Cyclop...You seem much annoyed...the previous one, too

There's a great quest in your poem, to be justified! I wonder what sense and knowledge gives us is to sent someone to death sentence? I'm against this in any form and realization is the biggest sentence in this universe.
ReplyDeleteStrongly written Cyclops.
ReplyDeleteReminded me "The punishment can be remitted; the crime is everlasting.
Author: Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
Where the hell is God?
ReplyDeleteI echo that!
