Notes About The Poem

Cops

Cops

Us..,
and
them.

They use violence.
Hurt people, 
and care not for others. 
They have their own rules,
“Chaos” is their master.

No dignity, nor worth…
No value of the soul.
Only their own…
Needs…
Wants…
Morals…
Values…
Religions…
Agendas…

The brave that wear... the "blue", 
You call, we call!
They come. 
Not slow, but fast, and just in time. 
Great risk, sad rewards…
Grateful citizens.
Thank you!

Andrea Dietrich August 14, 2019 at 5:16 PM it's so sad that there are so many bad people they must combat. And sometimes the cops go wrong, and the bad apples spoil it for the others. Great tribute, Ann

Lindsay Laurie August 13, 2019 at 11:38 PM Hello Ann … what police officers must put up is insane, especially when the courts let them down like they do here. Without them it would be chaos - thank you Ann - Lindsay Ann Foster August 14, 2019 at 8:39 AM One step away from insane. We are close. It is so sad. They ar not all great, but they ALL deserve to be honored. So very sad how they are treated. We need to make a change. Hugs. Ann

Kim Merryman August 13, 2019 at 9:37 PM A nice tribute to our police officers, Ann! They deserve more positive attention. Blessings, Kim Ann Foster August 14, 2019 at 8:38 AM God Bless all that wear a uniform and put their life down for others... Respect is the least we can offer. Hugs. Ann
