Fate

Far across in a distant city,
Gathered a mob to witness the judgement day
Ordered to offer no pity.
Firm they stood to get most of the day.

From whispers to grunts and finally shouts,
"Death to traitor",echoed all around
The commander soon ordered his scouts
to get prisoner paraded all around.

Time made her statement
no answers did she allow
no excuses did she entertain
and made them believe the folly of pain

The roaring bullets embraced the night
From shouts to whispers - the echo died.
As the prisoner lay dead in their sight
In the eerie silence of the night the passive mob cried.
