When the warden comes

When the warden comes
Short legs on him waddling toward your cell
Torch and nightstick braced in hands
To touch the bars as if the gates to hell

The corridor echoes and a dozen damned men sigh
For the rest of their foreseeable lives
Hope a torn doll
hands braced on bars that once wielded knives

The grin starts growing as short legs makes his rounds
The taunt, the voice that doesn't surpass a burp
 His nightstick clicks on bars as he ascends the hall
as he would a suburb in hell

The grin appears front of the cell
and everything is locked
