stolen peek
`
the gallows impartial
creaking wood, fainting
another breath snuffed
another neck wrung
a well-known face roped:
liberty, justice, peace
judgment-required execution
accusatory finger relax
legal mechanism complete
beyond pixelated broadcast
denunciatory acclaim -
a name even this poem
will not ever mention
