Anil Deo Poet Senryu

8 Minutes 46 Seconds of Blue Terror

I
If Jesus held his knee
on my neck for sins and crimes
it would be DARK indeed

II
Blue terror
evokes quiet from those
who hate terror

III
Neatly "dressed to kill"
as storm troopers
LEADER in the bunker -again

IV
why execute a suspect
no matter the crime
Milosevic died in his suit

NOTE: The police were called to a convenience store that had a complaint about an apparent $20 note that was fake. No evidence George Floyd was the one who had the counterfeit $20 bill. The CO$T of a life ???

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart June 7, 2020 at 7:58 PM Shaking my head in dismay. In my country, last week the police were called to do a wellness check on a 26 year old first nations woman, Chantel Moore, they shot and killed her. "Systemic". Sigh xomo

Harry Horsman June 7, 2020 at 12:56 AM Poetry for today, Anil..and powerful too.

Silent One June 6, 2020 at 6:10 AM Milosevic was an evil man, who committed a lot of crimes... who are the real terrorists, depends on ones judgement.. Anil Deo June 6, 2020 at 7:05 AM Exactly. It amazes me that writers need permission from SOMEONE to say something about George Floyd - conceding few exceptions - and thanX you are not "THE SILENT ONE" when it matters. All the love poems make me sick these days ....
