Starting in September, “Oklahoma plans to execute a person a month
for the next two years —Democracy Now, August 26, 2022
Why
do we kill people
who kill people
to show
that killing people
is wrong
and why,
if we kill people
who kill people
to show
that killing people
is wrong
are we four times more likely
to kill people
who kill white people
to show
that killing white people
is wrong
than we are people
who kill black people
to show
that killing black people
is wrong
and why,
if we spend six times more
to kill people
who kill people
than we do when we
imprison without parole people
who kill people
and why,
if killing people who kill people
deter people
from killing people
do countries
who kill people who kill people
to show
that killing people is wrong
have more
people who kill people
than countries who imprison
people who kill people
to show
that killing people is wrong
and why,
if our country has so many
people who believe in God
and so glories in the cross
on which Jesus was tortured
and killed
but that cross was how
Roman people tortured
and killed people
who they believed had done
something wrong
and why,
if you can’t fight fire
with fire
and two wrongs
never make
a right
and why,
if we sometimes
kill people
who did not kill
the people
we said
they had killed
and since we are
not GOD
but people
why
do we kill people
who kill people
to show
that killing people
is wrong?
