I'm so much older than I can take,
could we all be suited and booted fakes?
I fear I'm going to loose control,
I'm only doing my job, out on patrol.
They want to seem the Big I am',
and show off fire-arms with out a dam.
Although he isn't resisting arrest,
we tasered him three times in the legs.
Perhaps he's only playing dead,
Lets have a word with the department head.
For the public's safety and our
morality we tasered him for over an hour.
His mum might be watching the six o'clock news,
so we'll quickly tell her, her son's every move.
We'll make him sound like the worst type of criminal,
and assure her ,never does a professional act irrational.

Nasty stuff Beeme. I watched the video and recommend everyone does. Well done for highlighting it.

Thanks Jupiter, I hope everyone takes a look it's not pretty, but it's worth the watch. (:

Great subject matter, although the rhythm needs a little work.
Poetry that SAYS something!
