Rich Men Paid Blood Money Poem by Terence George Craddock

Rich Men Paid Blood Money

Rating: 5.0


I have seen men with two good hands
two good hands under Sharia Law
who did not deserve their own hands;

if they judgement applied law moral terms
of sentence harsh Sharia Law to themselves
but lawbreaker rich men paid blood money;

a small pittance in princely wealth excess
to cover their guilt pardoned excessive sins
paid to bleeding weeping victim poor families:
