James Fraser Poet Quatrain

Publicly Shamed, Allegedly Framed

It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
You have no proof
I will show no shame

I am a father of four
And you accuse me of this
I'm internally destroyed
To get your wish

Figures and statistics
For crimes you can't solve
Let's pick on the innocent
Your conscience resolved

To hell with my future
As you walk away
Another bent system
And I am your play

Carolyn Devonshire June 25, 2010 at 8:41 AM How sad to be accused and sense internal destruction, James. In many aspects of society, especially in government, the systems ARE bent. Outstanding entry for the contest and I offer my best wishes for success! Love, Carolyn
