The Axeman [Free Verse]

Hangman...
Axeman... 
Guillotine art-eest...
Stool-kicker...
Lever-yanker...
Elongator of necks...

His motto:
"Making them deader
than your average beheader."

Sharpening his blade,
Split hair-testing

Precise as the 
Taoist butcher --
blade between bone,
no nicks allowed

Killer of killers,
an audience thriller

Step right up...

Any last words?

Masked & shirtless
+
pudgy & sweaty

He's the hangman,
the axeman,
a killer of killers.
