The Ballad of Jean-Paul Marat
Revolution is calling.
The guillotine responds
to his list of names,
it called upon.
Spewing propaganda,
he doesn’t hold back.
Pen in hand
with a medicated bath.
Drawing out anger
through a written word.
A Radicalization
that was never heard.
Death is the answer,
it sets us free.
A decapitated head
for liberty.
The uprising continued
just as he planned,
for revolution ends
where it began.
"Five or six hundred heads cut off would have assured your repose, freedom and happiness." - Jean-Paul Marat
