Naked Show'd

The power to die
was all he had
all else was stripped away

always more pain
always more attack

endless blows of cruel misery
bartered for gold naked show'd
scars on his back told

his neck galled with chain
blood ran down his frame

endless days of toil
for another man's gain
seen as possession, not human

days long, hopes gone
all day out under burning sun

breast bare, matted hair
in mind was despair
a ruin of what had been
worked to death for another's dream

his neck galled with chain
blood ran down his frame
all for another's gain
bartered for gold, naked show'd
scars on his back told
