Premiere Contest WinnerSaga of Sam and Twitch

Sam and Twitch, two partner cops 
bust the bad guys in the chops 
	they found corruption
	and much disruption
in the NYPD shops

Sam was big, and loud, and gruff
with criminals, he was rough
	tendency to curse
	sometimes even worse
he’s the first to call a bluff

Where Sam was brawn, Twitch was smart
Angles were his state-of-art
	twin pistols twirling
	steady aim sterling
simple logic off-the-chart	

With Al, confronted evil
sometimes causing upheaval
	finding rotten cops
	pulling out the stops
integrity retrieval

Their story stops in interrupt 
as sales were not up to snuff
	sadly the tale ends
	without fair amends
their end was much too abrupt.

Thanks for your kind supportive words Ann. Sadly, Robert must have changed focus with his contest. I had already written this, so I posted anyway as an "inspired by". :)
