Monuments Of Postmortal Degradation

Triumphant acts of justice dancing in odious smell of decay
Law and order ornamented by gore, horror and disgust in the times
not long ago, milestones made of rotting remnants
Since the dawn of our culture till so-called age of reason

Take an excursion to the times
When hanging was not punishment enough
Smell the scent of butchered corpses
Punished even after their death

Learn to fear, learn to be shocked
Embraced by disgust, tuned to puke
Bodies of sentenced ones, caught, tortured
and executed, then exposed to the public

For public mockery, for public warning
Caged corpses hanging from the city walls
Served as table for the ravens
And playground for the maggots

Like those skeletons hanged in irons
Gibbeted around the highways
Rattling in the wind with bones singing
the songs of shame and doom

Exposed torsos with broken bones
Gory end of victims skinned alive
Wild hounds eating the entrails
Of those drawn and quartered

Hogs feeding on dislimbed trunks in the times
of punishments sometimes worse than crimes
