Underground Empire

Known in the local yakuza
the Socratic salacious Mister Tim
crime boss of stark vigilantes
dealing in sensational azure rubles
a convalescent repressed law rectified
pandemonium ruling the street at night
organization in the underground his empire

Two Sides To Every Tale

A murderer and a scoundrel
A man lies slain upon the ground
Justice he cries was found in death
Those who doubt shall see reason

A girl who saw the whole tale
Knew the truth of the scene
A robbery had gone awry
The victim had become the victor

The judge and jury deem him wrong
Just don’t buy his self defense
Forensics inconclusive no proof found
Where is innocent until proven guilty?

The girl too scared to come forward
Vindication would have been found
Her silent prayer just isn’t enough
To prevent the hanging that occurs
