about the hanging

the courthouse poured out the crowd
who carried the accused
upon
their finger tips...............beneath
........................................cracked plaster sky
a violin and the moon passed
twisted shaken trees
a sailor trembling on the beach
handcuff'd peasants on their knees
crystal tears silver smiles in a cage
haunting wailing choirs
a french girl
pointed.............................. to the flag pole
the mob unravelled him
and hung him
from the
top
where he waved in the wind
'IT WASN'T ME.'
.......................................................download murder
