Sentenced To Death

Hanged from the gallows 
of creative writing. 
Swinging from the gibbet 
of sentence construction. 

With grammar that stands 
on the essence of her voice, 
the alphabet hung as a necklace 
around the vocality of her wordy neck. 

She'd wanted to 
swallow all the letters 
in quick succession 
punctuation as well, 

but that would have been suicide.
