Best Law Abiding Poems
"La Voz"
La Noche sin agua --- I spill my loving lips
Dancing, laughing, and celebrating life
I am his queen, aka' dulce Nina
A night he must not forget
Lunesta ... Suave ...
He savors every moment;
Then questions my capabilities
Suddenly I feel like a refugee in my own house!
History and bad company, repeating itself
He wants to ruin the beauty of leadership
America on top, Latinos on the bottom
"Legally," he says, he'll welcome me
Law-abiding, I pass the proper speech
Stereotyped every time I share my race
Casting my poor nationality under the Rio Grand,
A wall too tall, in which my people continue to build
After I give him my all
Children, love, support
The best tortillas in the house
He offends a lifetime of memories
I'm a skillful woman, I dance with no music
I love to work, I take the field
Picking cotton, like there's no tomorrow
I will continue to paint rainbows
And enjoy every color in my garden.
Today, I've forgotten what Mexico looks like
However, that does not cut him from
accusing my race of planting too many trees
Calculating, calling Latinos criminals,
Forgetting his sin, he wants to win
Insinuating we're robbing the American Dream
This is where I belong!!!
Go ahead and build more republicans
I'm already on the side I want to be
Born and raised in the USA

Inspired by the TV show, "Chicago P.D.". Being a police officer is more challenging than ever in the world. As much as there are valid concerns about issues, overall, we need our police officers.
Crossing lines
By Michelle Morris
11/01/2023
There are lines drawn
By law and order
By society's norms
And states and countries
They can sometimes
Contradict each other
They can sometimes
Be confusing
But ultimately
Each of us needs to
Be guided by a
Higher calling
There's honesty and honour
There's good and there's truth
There's peace and justice
There's hope and faith
Our integrity is crucial
Our choices become actions
We move forward on our life path
By experiences and knowledge
Crossing lines
So easily done
With good intentions
We hurt and we shun
Lines invisible
Lines so real
Society exists
Through laws and traditions
But the law isn't always
About what is purely good or bad
It is more often about
The lines drawn by Legal's hand
For a law in one place
Might be allowable in another
And those laws won't have anything
To do with ethics or good governance
Ultimately it's up to each and every one
To be the best person they can be
In the Universe that surrounds us
For all law abiding human beings

I am praying for the day,
When all walls will fall away,
And we as sons and daughters,
Will all truly obey.
The commandment to love one another,
Is the great and first commission.
To love God with all our hearts,
Might, mind and strength, our mission.
This is the celestial law abiding,
With no lies or self-deceit in the way.
There must be no inner hiding,
And for all this we must pray.
We all require our one true King.
Only He can sustain and set free,
But to be in his kingdom,
Each one must be at peace.
In this we must have no borders,
No place we cannot go,
For a King to reign in heaven,
There must be every room to grow.
There will be no manner of -ites,
No one will be excluded from their rights.
Each one loved as all are one,
Every moment blessed with pure divine.
Here in these last days, this is our destination,
For as Christ is to come, we are to receive Him.
No one will abide the day, unless we are all together,
In one body, one faith, under one head, forever.
Lucy Swain
1861 - 1896
Lies! Lies! All damnable lies!
I know the injustice of malicious gossip.
I know the outrage of a loose evil tongue.
In life, I was Lucy Swain, the maligned!
I was Lucy Swain, the indignant!
In truth, I was Lucy Swain, the law-abiding, god-fearing victim
Who resided over on Milton Avenue
With her bent-over heart-broken mother.
In fact, I was Lucy Swain, the innocent weeping victim
Of a thousand cruel hypocritical stares.
And so, let me shout it out
As loudly as my silent soul can,
From my deep grave here in Clark Cemetery:
I never set foot, not once, on Rideout Ranch!
I never set eyes on the winking blue orbs
Of the devastatingly handsome George Towne,
That philandering cad with the fine derby hat.
I never tasted the warm pulsating kisses from his sweet-tasting, pursed lips.
And I never felt the caressing electric touch
Of his firm groping fingers upon my bosom,
There, under the old cedar tree on Rideout Ranch!
Lies! All lies!
And as God is my witness
I never spent even one gloriously romantic moment
In the embrace of the incredibly strong arms
Of the sexy man married to Fannie Towne!
Amen!
No bull in the proverbial china shop
but of the astrological skies
you’d ride bareback upon the animal
assured by its strength and muscular form
Ruled by Venus and of the second house
A feminine introvert or negative sign
A lover of all things nature and natural
Earth, loyal and faithful but needs stability
Although stubborn enough to charge at one disturbing the peace
Fulfilling the senses with beauty
Neck and throat sensitive and strong (aim affection here!)
Homely content, liking the comforts of life
Attracted to material things in simplest form
although from senses – tactile or pleasing to eye
Naturally practical likes comfortable space for home and work
Food clothes music and linen of importance
for ‘things’ are of value, money and those not materialistic
Sensation more important than feelings and thought
A Taurean can appear boring to others
Practical and sensible in approach
Basing life on the real not imagined
Not willing to take unecessary risk
nor put foundations that are solid in jeopardy
Happy with stability and simplicity so long as functional
Not to be distracted and not exceptionally clever
You get to where you want to be through determination
Always needing the tools to get back to basics and build
A feminine introvert or negative sign
Life is good, ruled by Venus sensual and simple
In Venus Taurus is about physical and idealistic love, arts and beauty
Patient, reliable warmhearted and caring nature
One determined and persistant, a creative, placid creature
Needs watch health especially throat, repiratory, abscess and rheumatism
Stubborness and inflexibility can sometimes be issue
Possessive and relentlessness yet loving
Law abiding and somewhat hostile with change
Witty and practical, faithful and generous to friends
More than averagely loving and very self-conscious
Fixed in opinion down to experience and acceptable patterns
Steadfast, just and firm when faced with difficulty
These are not afraid of dirty hands nor shy of hard work
At best in positions of trust and responsibility
Strength is sensible outlook on life
Weakness of being unable to accept less than you can achieve
Seeing is believing
and because the feet are firmly on the ground
others will come to this sign for advice
as they plod along taking only what is needed to survive
“Hello, my name is bisexual”. “What’s your name”?
Annoying name tags!
Who do I wear this name tag for?
When throughout the day can I just snatch it off?
Never because it’s tattooed to the right side of my chest.
the way I choose my life to be isn’t the best,
Some say it’s a “sin”!
Some say it’s “selfish”!
Some say it’s “super-fresh”!
Either way I can look forward to some good rest tonight.
How about you?
“Don’t like the same sex,
You’re going to be marked by this the for remainder of your life…
Wait, what’s bisexual again”?
Why must I specify, what I do in my private time?
Do you know what that word means?
Cause I don’t know anymore.
“I’m tired of people not saying what they really are”!
Excuse me for keeping the conversation on the “up and up”.
As I said before, my sexuality only makes up 5% of my personality.
Did you know that I was a good person?
A law abiding citizen,
I don’t do drugs,
And I try never to hurt anyone unless I absolutely have to...
Okay, I sound like the average serial killer.
But how many half-a *** mass murderers do you know?
I’m trying to be polite,
But it has never been that black & white!
A label,
Enabling you to feel better about being around me.
It helps you tolerate me and my sexuality,
Why 4, I’m not fornicating with you!
So what I’m unsure, (I use condoms and dental dam.)
This country has done nothing for me to yield to such rules.
You can’t even serve in the armed forces, without looking over your shoulders.
So what are you really saying to me?
Nothing!
Our land we love, don’t we?
Paying “F.I.C.A” is as patriotic as your going to get me to be.
Hell I’m paying for the labeling,
So you can feel comfortable.
I’m a human.
When has that ever been just black & white?
The physical pain ,
is not enough to drain,
war physiological
,thought criminological
I'm a law abiding citizen
ready to relax
fire lights ,ignite
echo , wind claps
lightning flashes across water
animals fly across sand ,
flames get hotter ,
wave ,water ,
glass shatters, break,
straight forward ,
life , no mistake ,
I hunt threw the eye's ,
as I create ,analyze fate,
dragon in the cloud breathing fire
threw your gates ,
Flintstones head shot
sleeping bedrock ,
50 / 50 split
sure why not ,
hallow ,empty a clip,
living long ,lasting
Emperor Assassin
storm rain
E A !
It's in the game
Two strong competitors fighting for the crown
So many promises, Where can we go wrong
What did our bible?
Said about speaking in tongues
Someone must lose in order
For the other one to win
That is what known at the game change.
Knowingly, nothing would ever be the same again
How many competitors from the past fulfill their promises?
Fools us once, shame on you, fool us twice,
We just have to say Oh! Jesus Christ.”
We listen and watch all those tricks and trades
With ponderings thoughts we said “who said what?
Can they really step up to the plate and deliver
Are we willing to put our country in the hand of the wealthy?
Who never knew the meaning being dirt poor?
Should we say, no more, no more?
Show us the beef, and we shall show you where our loyalty lies
Because man is his own authority
So he uses his brilliant educational philosophy so creative
he wink and said ” I get back to you on the real issues”
You law abiding fools
Satan is a liar, and so is man.
White, lies, black lie and grey lies
Everybody lied at some point in their life
why stop now?
On the run, again
Being chased by rogue police
I got to protest
That I’m innocent
I’m a law-abiding criminal
I mean citizen
On the last exit to wonderland
I ended up all banged up in hospital
After this constant battle
With guns and knives
Another one bites the dust
On my hospital bed, I’m reminiscing
Of how many friend’s I lost
To this urban war
I thank God
That I don’t drink Bourbon anymore
Side effects lets me land face first on the floor
So, that chapter of my life I had to close the door
I’m currently checking my final score
I’m not going back to the lab again
I went from vegetable to a surgical guinea pig
Talk about Frankenstein’s worse nightmare
I’m out again now you can stop and stare…
The F-Bomb has been replaced
As the naughtiest word in the english language
By this new extremely naughty four letter word
Yup! You guessed it... SNOW!!!
The notorious S-Bomb!
Parents shudder when their wee one utters it in public
Oh the shame of it all
The parents try so hard to bring their kids up
As upstanding, polite, law abiding little fellows
And then this... they feel like total failures
“I don't give an S-Bomb!” the little guy shouts out at the mall
The parents cringed with embarrassment
Another time he was heard to yell out at McDonald's
“I hate these S-Bombing Chicken McNuggets”
So now you see, punishment is definitely in order
The parents had to lay down the law...
“Go to your S-Bombing room!
You are not allowed to play on your X-Box
For a whole S-Bombing week”!

>>1111>>WHAT IS THIS THING WE ARE LIVING IN?<<1111<<
Surrounded by beauty away from cities criticism,
Sitting in awe, But questioning being a law abiding citizen,
What is this thing we are living in?
What the hell is up with all the harmful acts I'm witnessing?
Designed strategically, and intentionally sending out devilish energy subliminally,
Subliminal messages manifesting terror in the form of evil,
We have a rival with an agenda of upheaval,
Trapped in a false reality bringing disconnection to the level of your soul,
Everything infiltrated by the Jesuit Soldiers,
Who becomes jury of these occult rulers?
They cast so vast esoteric secrets at the unaware,
In my eyes I find this very unfair,
It brings about a tear,
Because I care about humans as one universal family,
But I'm really over one another's rambling,
Just like meaningless flings I can see through it,
I keep my mind fit by keeping still as I sit,
Never quit!
Never giving up on the path of genuine enlightenment,
Spent a moment right now in serenity before today's tests
Away from all negativeness of over worked peoples stress,
I let my mind rest as I lay on my back feeling blessed,
While looking at the mountains and seeing the power of their crests,
I confess to everything I have done to our Mother Earths Nest,
There's so much of our actions that She intensely detests,
This life is a test so invest in higher thought processes,
Drink pure rain water to progress before going further,
Lets go in and explore so we can find the legit teacher that's like a father.
Sick of this weed and where it leads when unstable,
Not capable
of following through with consciously aware will,
Wilted inner power towering wanting to kill,
Your logical thinking, sinking,
Playing blames games with reasons insane,
Asking am I who I claim to be when the receiver is the brain?
Thinking I came into this 3D domain with a higher purpose,
Is this folly or Holy?
Demon's leave
when I seek truths that most don't see and believe,
Just beings being and not seeing,
Through blindness believing the mind thieves,
We wont get into conspiracies,
But, just understand we are conditioned
to be law abiding citizens within systems,
In everything including your mindset,
Story Rhymes that cross truth and lies unfed,
Treading on the devices led, steered and trending
from a place called Rome,
Instead ive chosen a alternate zone,
Grown alot through awareness and grooming,
Inbloom and growing and fully blooming,
Zooming and looking to space
that traps and hides the other side,
Knowing
reception depends on your perceptions that collide...

If i allow a mother to steal food, in order to feed her babies. Does that make me
an angel or criminal? How do we as people not take responsibilty to change our
own destiny?
For justice is the right of everyone!
If i don't take the time to teach this mother to stand, to be self reliant, to have faith,
to face her fears. If i don't teach her compassion and self respect. Does that
make me part of the problem or the solution?
For any injustice hurts everyone!
If i don't register to vote because i believe the system is broke. How then can i sit
on this mother's jury, with 11 others to deceide if she committed a crime?
For justice is the right of everyone!
If i allow the truth to be silenced by her economics or her up bringing. Am I giving
her an excuse to keep on?
For any injustice hurts everyone!
If i check hispanic as my race because my other choices demand that i deny my
mother. Does that mean that i disrespect my own people?Does that mean i don't
believer in Dr. King's dream?
For justice is the right of everyone!
If i allow the disrespect of another's faith, from one coming of my own. Does that
mean I have no faith in my own beliefs?
For any injustice hurts everyone!
If i adopt a child from a a foreign country. Does that make me heartless to the
needs of the here?
For justice is the right of everyone!
If am a solider supporting my family and I must go to war. Does that mean I
support the reasons behind the war?
For any injustice hurts everyone!
If am a hard working law abiding citixen . Does that mean that it is none of my
concern how the system punishes criminals of differnt races?
For justice is the right of everyone!
If my child is on life support and my insurance won't cover no more treatment .
Who then has the right to deceide if my child lives or dies?
For any injustice hurts everyone!
If i justify my wrong doings with excuses of what was done to me and my people.
Will you tell me what that makes me?
For justice is the right of everyone!
Justice is everyone's freedom to think, feel, love, have no limits in what one can
do. Justice is to receive the respect of everyone. Not to be judged for sex,race or
faith. To have equal opportunities for you and I!
To quote Dr. King's words, " Injustice anywhere threatens justice everywhere!"
end quote.
For any injustice hurts everyone!
He told me “tell my son his father was a good man”, over and over.
He believed so I believed that the warmth of his last request would keep our hearts full until we
all meet again.
I hope heaven treats him kind; one of a kind that man.
On earth he was in mint condition; crisp as his shirt collar and smooth as silk sheets.
The only man of my dreams now exists there eternally.
In reality, my son’s much too young to know of death’s calling.
Besides, law abiding citizens shouldn't meet such misfortunes while the rest of the world frolics
in ungratefulness
Still as the world turns I will raise my fatherless child.
we are living in an age when people would rather cover
their ass than think about what they say,
when people would rather try to censor the way we speak
than look at the reasons that we say the things that we
do &
kids are getting the full beating treatment,
as schools in nyc are proposing a new ban of words
which appear on standardized tests,
tests which like all methods of evaluation
are skewed by those who create them,
representing the views & the discrepancies of the
creators,
so of course,
the blame needs to be removed from those who insist upon
dragging children through the mundane & futile assessments
neath’ the guise of ceasing the
“upsetting” of the kids.
in this age of irresponsibility,
of the quickest way to fix our frustrations,
“precautions” are being taken,
in order to mold kids into good little law abiding citizens---
rather than to allow them to think for themselves,
rather than to prepare them for the real & horrible world
in which they are about to be thrown into,
an attempt is being made to
censor them,
keeping them from having to see words like “evolution” or
“poverty,”
“terrorism,”
“homelessness” or
“catastrophes” &
what kind of bubble do the test-makers think these kids are
going to be able to live in?
what insane parents sitting on the boards think that
pulling more words from tests,
will do anything but draw more attention to those words?
what kind of subliminal mind**** newspeak is this?
teachers sound as if they are going further than before
to try & make kids
who will never say anything offensive
because they will hardly ever speak their mind &
in doing so, they’ll be the best damn americans that
our tax dollars can buy---
start em’ when they’re young &
instead of letting them learn about life through experience,
try to avoid it
whenever possible.
