The prisoner who’s been
beheaded
has grown another which is soon to be on
decapitation. It’s an old
axe: the one that keeps
falling
and
raising. Which
is why the prisoner
throws a gold coin
at the headsman, why do
I owe
you so much,
why I keep testifying.
I like the spacing in 4th and 5th line. It gives time to the action to be complete and impactful.
