The most recent thing I've written
I still have strange ideas. Still not apologizing.

if he were to come in here right now
and accuse me of murder
you would not ask him for proof
you would thank him
and send him on his way
for he has the reputation of a thousand soldiers and nobles
and i have the reputation of a thousand peasant widows
and you would send men to my home
and drag me from my bed
and put me on trial
for the crime of murder
i would be condemned
sentenced to hanging
and yet as i stand here accusing him
with an earnest face and the evidence in my hands
you still mock me
and call out for proof
