    Woe to you O Watchtower
    I am the Go’el
    Avenger of blood
    You sit within your tower of stone
    Feeling secure as you mete out “justice”
    But your heart is as your walls
    Cold stone --- without humanity
    But I ----- I traverse stone
    Your walls are not impenetrable
    I shall burrow through them
    Just as a moist wind can do

    In the dark of night
    When you fall upon your divan for slumber
    While you drift amongst your grandiose dreams
    I shall then come unto you
    Your dreams will become as nightmares
    For my right arm is strong
    My steel is sharp
    You have no city of refuge
    I shall avenge the innocent blood
    You have caused to be shed these hundred years

    Your tongue is false
    I shall cut it from within you
    Place it upon the brazier
    The stench of its corruption
    Will turn to incense wafting towards the heavens

    Woe to you O Watchtower
    The time draws near
    I am watching ---- waiting
    Soon you will be no more
    My right arm is strong
    My steel is sharp

    GOEL: in Hebrew the participle of the verb gaal, "to redeem." It is rendered in the Authorized Version "kinsman," Num. 5:8; Ruth 3:12; 4:1,6,8; "redeemer," Job 19:25; "avenger," Num. 35:12; Deut. 19:6, etc. The Jewish law gave the right of redeeming and repurchasing, as well as of avenging blood, to the next relative, who was accordingly called by this name.

    So were you personally enslaved to the WT, or was one of your relatives? A little background would help us know you better.
