"gullotine" poems
As I lay my head down to rest You ask if you may pull the rope And my response is be my guest for what is life when you've lost all hope. I watch as the golden blade seems to descend from heaven Waiting for the blade to come crashing back down to earth I was brought into this world at the hour of seven And ever since cursed from my moment of birth. Praise from others made my heart grow warm So I gratefully agreed to stand atop there platform But now I fear that I am in for a great fall For I turned my back on reason and became like you all. I look out into the crowd of spectators And see not one of your faces For instead all those people you called haters Have taken your places. I feel no regret, for I know my legacy no one shall ever forget. Heaven or Hell it does not matter where I go for my end is but a show.
