uncruel & unusual

and on that day

every supporter of the

death penalty (60% or

so of american idiots)

was ushered into an

execution taking place

with hands tied

behind their backs &

eyes propped open with

safety pins or whatever it

took to keep their

goddamned eyes open

long enough to watch

the slow killing of those

they condemned

to die, with all the

self-righteous certainty of

a sunday morning.
