Absolute K Ice
Absolutely, this avoidable chaos
Is driving everybody very uncomfortable
Police rhymes with Minneapolis
But Ice does not rhyme with peace
Ice rhymes instead with lice
Ices rhymes with mice
And Ice rhymes with price
The insanity that is seeing at the table.
Ice rhymes with vice
Ice rhymes with skice
And Ice rhymes with Alcatraz
These yikes are causing an impasse
Which creates an awful mess
And an unnecessary chaos
In every street in many cities
Especially in Minneapolis.
I have been to Minneapolis
At the time, there was no trash, no snow and no ice
Many years ago, I also visited the Twin Cities
The people were nice and courteous
These days, there’s a mayhem every second in their streets
People are throwing heavy duty profanities
Such mother flowers in the face of the bad police officers
And the paramilitary bullies
Who act like judges, henchmen and offenders.
Gangsters like tigers are roaming the streets
Democracy is comatose and cruelty is working the beats
America has not seen so much atrocities
Since the turbulent sixties
When rightfully so, the often victimized minorities
Were fighting for equal rights and better opportunities
Ice rhymes with chaos, not peace
And ice rhymes with vice, not justice.
P.S. This poem is dedicated to the victims of all types of violence
And injustice.
