The Hand That Signed the Paper

The hand that signed[00:00:00]

The paper felled a city;[00:00:02]

Five sovereign fingers[00:00:06]

Taxed the breath [00:00:08]

Doubled the globe of dead[00:00:10]

And halved a country;[00:00:13]

These five kings[00:00:16]

Did a king to death [00:00:19]

The mighty hand[00:00:23]

Leads to a sloping shoulder [00:00:25]

The finger joints[00:00:28]

Are cramped with chalk;[00:00:30]

A goose's quill[00:00:34]

Has put an end to murder[00:00:36]

That put an end to talk [00:00:40]

The hand that signed[00:00:44]

The treaty bred a fever [00:00:46]

And famine grew [00:00:49]

And locusts came;[00:00:51]

Great is the hand[00:00:54]

That holds dominion over[00:00:56]

Man by a scribbled name [00:00:59]

The five kings count the dead[00:01:04]

But do not soften[00:01:07]

The crusted wound nor pat the brow;[00:01:09]

A hand rules pity[00:01:15]

As a hand rules heaven;[00:01:18]

Hands have no tears to flow [00:01:22]
