A man is condemned by those who are sure of his guilt. A 12 line poem.

-Tightrope-
by Keaton Foster
Twelve Line Poem
*Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5*


No slack
Not an ounce taken
Not a stretch given
Tightrope
Around his neck
To be hanged until death
Convicted for hurting another
So now every other
Will grievously inflict upon him
A prime example
Of an eye for an eye
Such a man is deserving…
