What lead to the death of Bill?

                           What lead to the death of Bill?

                                     a poetic response to "The Sound of the Hollyhocks"

A handsome young man in a wealth family,
but his wife died in a ruefully tragedy.
A royal worker earns a plenty of salary,
but he doesn't get a feeling of accomplishment, unfortunately.

What a traumatic life he lives,
he doesn't even know who he really is.
"The Bitch of Belson" controls what he thinks.
and crazily alters his beliefs.

Who's fault is that?
Is  his mother who gives him desperation,
or is it himself, who could never make a decision.

Gentleman Your Verdict

As the mine exploded under water,
the submarine sit patiently for a savior.
Seven days is the time they have to keep,
but there's only air for five to breath.

What should I do? The captain thought,
who should live and who should not.
Eventually, fifteen man was killed,
leaving five men with family, sadness fulfilled.

Captain Bruce followed his crew,
just like what every captain would do.
Afterwards, he was court-martialled for murder,
as he stopped fifteen people's life going further.

I respect Bruce as a commander and leader,
someone have to stand up and be the decision maker.
If I ask for you answer,
guilty or not?
