Kangaroo Court

Here's a man
With scares of misfortune
Standing before his death
In a kangaroo court
convicted before his trials
For feeding on a fowl
Straying about
in search of it dead owner

Here's this man
With blood in his eyes
Stare at the judge
A boy man
With missile in his hands
No defendant
No adjournment
No semblance of justice

Here's this man
Chanting prayers,
Winds of foy, embracing his soul,
Bidding him farewell
Found guilty,
Sentenced to death
Behind the court
Executed at lightening pace
