Post Conviction Relief Poem by James McLain

...........it is a type of collateral appeal
after all the, 'Regal ones run out.
When issues that are not preserved
or are ignored,
are procedurally barred from court.
it is the law....
Evan on death row.
You know.
Where D.N.A. is used most think
to put the, 'evil all away.
Most give up....nearly all.
Ninety ninety...point ninety nine
percent they do, is gold.
Seeing but a single, 'pin prick of light
from many miles away.
Would you see it if you could, i ask
with out those glasses on your face.
Or run away inside your head.
Death is death and life is life,
forever and one day.
They all say...............
Their is mercy in some pleading place
a very small room of grace in it/it stays.
for ignorance can even hide in Education....
And then their is the other....education,
where more than words are 'God's' involved.
Being simple,
and knowing nothing........it evolved.
