A Noose of Gold by George W Kiwanuka
to match the golden chalice from which you've supped and
inebriated yourself with our blood whilst we bow
It will be perfumed and laced with a ritzy fragrance
kissed and wrapped in Egyptian cotton
to suit your opulent lofty relish
The noose shall be woven with expensive thread from Spain
and infused with a bit of arm and leg, embroidered with your initials
Cleaned and dusted daily so it does not crease
Lest we forget, we will dye it with what's left of our blood
only it will not matter...we will not remember
So long as the noose is a tight fit for your fine neck.
George W Kiwanuka
