Day 4

59 1 1
                                    

It's closed, the door

All my muscles very sore

A different cell, different day

A chair to cause my pain in ways

Strapped in, light above my head

Now I wish I was dead

In 36 hours I haven't been feed

I am leaving nothing unsaid

The chair folds down, parallel to the floor

Two men pile in and say: water-board

A rag is put on my face

As they put the jug into place

I jolt in my chair

All of its standing up, my hair

Remember we told you life isn't fair

And the two men don't seem to care

You would think 17 times is enough

Now it seems I'm all out of luck

Reach for the scalpel but I'm not knocked-out

No! Please don't do this I shout and I pout
