Death Row

Margareth Debrosse

We are prisoners
of the world.

Born today and die
tomorrow.

A journey from one to
ten and the cycle starts again.

Everyone knows he/she has to
go to the world without hat.

Humanity is on death row; the
grin reaper is the conqueror, transformer,

and transmitter.

No one knows when his/her time's up.  So
enjoy, be happy, and drown yourself in love

cause everybody is on death row.
