RICHARD COOEY





THE SOUR WILL BE SWEET





If my green sour

hard heart

can slowly ripen

in God's loving sun

then there is

hope

for everyone



***

God end all executions,

war, slaughterhouses,

lumbering, insecticides..

all forms of violence today

and forever.

Neighbors, classmates

and friends of Richard Cooey

are calling local talk show

stations.. to say that

when he was 11, his father

hit him in the head with

a hammer.. he came running

across the street.. neighbors

saw the deep injury..



his baby sister sat in the

driveway crying.. unattended

.. diapers full



some of his schoolmates

taunted him over the head

injury his father gave



and yet the Summit

County prosecutor, thinks

to proclaim that he is not

reformed.. she portrays that

she knows his private

conversations with God..

that she has infinite

data with which to judge him



God override all the Madame

DeFarge's in the world

their career's knitting

needles .. the needles

of the state murder execution

chambers..
