Someone wants me dead
 from the neck and upwards.
 Rope weaved by these hands,
 box of my toils. 

Coerced – dazed by a suckerpunch.
 Reeling – believing that these are the dues. 

Pitch back – throwback to a chastised youth.
 No quarter – stifled under a stich-up hood. 

To be made an example
 will stauch my deviant flow. 

Held a lever that only I can pull.
 Need a trauma to silence my loose tongue. 

Bigots want my head
 on a plate to sound-out. 

Probing – exposing delicate core to full view.
 Damning – programming etiquette to suit. 

To dissect and reset
 will staunch my deviant flow. 

Held a lever that only I can pull.
 Need a trauma to silence my loose tongue.
 Group constrictor.
 Throttling a bond.
 Call a cull to silence our loose tongues.
