RE: JUDGE AND JURY: AN EXPERIMENT
Ok that was not exactly the ending I was expecting! But it is perfect! What an interesting post. I can't decide what I liked more, the (dark) story or the poetry interludes. Those poems are exceptional. The story is gripping, I couldn't look away even if I kind of wanted to by the end. You are truly living up to your username here! Resteemed :)

My Brief Statement
In the world all over, people have fallen victim of mob lynching for either committing a crime or simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
In my post, I explore how a person in such a position could feel, who he or she could be. My aim being to show that these people that we have shown such depravity, are also human beings, whose story might have warranted sympathy from us, if we but listened.
I am also looking at mob mentality; how easy it is for well-behaved individuals to get carried away by the explosion of emotions in the mob, into perpetrating despeakable acts that their saner selves will never allow.
Finally, how some things like the handful of garri in the boy's pocket and the module of garri in the bag, can seem quite simple but is rather complicated.
Thanks for stopping by to read my piece and for the nomination. Stay safe @carlgnash. Peace.
Author showcase post is up :)
