DECAPITARE
One planet~ for all to have and enjoy every beautiful being on it. See how each life flourishes within it’s own environment—
Well, that’s not the case in this part of town. Making ends meet, trying to find help from others who call themselves humans & yet it seems there’s no act of love, or any humanity left on planet earth.
If given a chance- I guess I’d ask for my guardian to show up and take me to a better place-- where I won’t have to worry about dealing with this tough crowd that always act as if I’m a problem to society. Apparently, since I have no current reputation, or known task that makes the place grow with more money, the final solution for me is: decapitation!
As I watch the guillotine being put into place- I fail to hear the chants of the pleased onlookers. ‘‘Off with his head!’’ Some folks try to quickly look away and not make any eye contact with me.
The executioner drags my body up the platform and places my head right below the blade. ‘‘Any last words.’’
There’s nothing I can say to save me now. My cries seem to fall on deaf ears.
With a quick motion, the blade descended before I could even say a prayer for all those eyes watching, and waiting— for my head to be chopped.
I hadn’t been given a chance to dive and dig in one of the wastes lying about the town. Hmm, maybe I should have asked for some rum.
