innocent.

a coiled menace,
swaying in the wind.
our fates entertwined.
a step or two closer,
every step a little breath.
stepping ever closer to death.

he stands upon the platform,
as he pleads to his last mercy.
for the death of another,
someone's dear brother.
a coiled menace takes the flesh at will,
his feet ever still.
one last breath to take,
your whole life at stake.
he is gone.
innocent.
