Silent Killer

Destitution 
Contribution
Retribution and 
Pollution.

Distribution
Persecution
Allocation and 
Prostitution.

Disillusion
Institution
Absolution and
Percicution 

You continue to pass laws.
Laiden with so many flaws.
Providing criminals just cause.
Within the confines of your walls.

Stop the sale of coke and meth.
Police involvement; your last breath.
Remove safe zones to inject.
It's time to act; sudden death.

It's all because of you,
This profanity, all the clues.
Bloody noses, arms track blue.
Your body shakes; 
If only I knew.
