Why I Like Cop Shows

Police come in
bright like the sun,
cleaning away from the outside
what should be hidden safely within.

So the ordinary hours
dawn from underneath.
They are full-sized,
with heavy feet.

The heavy feet get one away from the ordinary hours? If this is the reason, well, yes! Plus, there always is one heluva lot of noise. Congrats on the selection. daver

no. I just love it when chaos and scariness is replaced by sane people under good management. Thanks Anna-Lise
