[bodytext] => Bob of Nazareth Targeted in the crossfire Accused of a felony His dead wife, his only alibi There has been a murder The weapon remains unfound In the shiny Arabian desert You’re guilty until you’re found- Innocent, he was not For his confession Conceded the plot Sleep depravation And chronic starvation Frontal lobes- Enduring a tingly sensation A man always breaks When his family is at stake Sentence to rot In a prison cell Or a pre-dug grave plot Forever alone With no one to talk to but His ancestor’s bones Then it was discovered Something had been left uncovered The murdered man Was dead no more He had simply been in a comma Drunk on the floor And as the chair That propped Bob up Was kicked out from under him His neck cracked then snapped He hung there, swaying Back and forth His loved ones cried in tore cloth Then a letter was brought forth He had been pardoned Of his heinous crime He was ordered free Right “in the nick of time” [comments] => 0 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 43 [informant] => jyssvw [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 1 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
