137 Death Row

Hollow jangles,
clanks, bounced off
cold gray blocks
and patterns of steel.
Echoes reechoed, echoed
and died.
Faces stared through
thin cracks,
peep holes of cells.
Eyes followed feet past
door,wall,face, bar,
door, wall, face, bar,
gone
down corridors
through the last door,
strapped to the seat,
coils,
current,
peace.
