two states choose to execute two convicted men
perhaps they did wrong, perhaps they did no wrong
twenty plus years in prison means nearly every cell
in the men’s bodies has been replaced three times
their bodies remake themselves yet can’t shed
their criminal identification . . . now they’re dead
to satisfy someone’s powerful urge to rule others
because each of us individually cannot rule ourself
shall it be life or death? be my guest, you choose
