Jeez, their voices hurt my ears
my head is spinning
this floor is hard . . . wet
I’m cold
What they saying?

“. . . come together. . . in this together . . . “

“. . . do justice . . .“

“ . . . jury wrong . . .“

“Confess, confess.“

Auwe. . . what she talking
that Fortescue lady
so loud
they push me in the car
drag me here
I can’t move

“. . . we’re in this together. . .“

“. . . newspapers said . . .“

“. . . stop this chaos . . .“

“. . . lust-mad youths . . .
foul, slimy creatures . . .
attacking the innocent . . .“

“. . . forty rapes last year . . .“

“. . . martial law . . .“

What they talking?
Why they shoot me?

“Stay awake, Joey, stay awake?
Joseph! don’t go to sleep.“

I hear you, Mommy,
I hear you
It’s so hard

I don’t want to die . . .
