Punishments Past

You’ll never know just how I feel 
To be accused of something wronged 
To feel the lash of punishments past 
To pay for sins with your wooden nickels 
 
Not once, but twice I’ve been racked 
Show me your smoking gun 
Bring forth your priests to plough your truth 
But don’t look to me to be your Dreyfus 
 
I’ve withstood the storms 
The jagged words have ceased to slice 
What once was feverous has turned to ice 
Your guillotine blade has dulled by wit 
But nothing you can do can dull my bit 
 
So take your accusations 
Your mind slinging venom to clean 
Gather all your rancid ingredients 
And conjure up your delectable cuisine 
 
I’ve withstood the storms 
The jagged words have ceased to slice 
What once was feverous has turned to ice 
Your guillotine blade has dulled by wit 
But nothing you can do can dull my bit
