What Man Can Reverse Hell

At work today, my boss informed me of a website--- www.innocenceproject.org--- started by a group dedicated to helping the victims of our faulty criminal justice system. The Innocent Project is a group that spends resources toward clearing the names of the wrongly convicted, preventing wrongful conviction, and helping the released reintegrate into society. After discussing the problem of wrongful conviction with her, I decided to write this short poem. Enjoy.

What Man Can Reverse Hell

America is a gun
Once the System has triggered
All the damage has been done
And down will fall the nigger
So what if the mark misses
For what man can reverse Hell
As inward a man hisses
All that's left is a hot shell
