A gallery of whispers mysteries mockingly unravel-- I walk the corridors at night, to greet the dawn, a judges' gavel. Each memory, in witness, called. a cross-exam that grows intense. Execution would be relief, A mercy, pardoning life sentence. Joyful, I'll braid hangman's noose. I'll sharpen blade of guillotine. I'll command the firing squad, my last request to rest in peace. |

Whoa...where in the world did this come from!? Amazing! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
