Best Sheriffs Poems

It was still quite dark in Milton Creek, and it had just gone four
When Tom arrived at the sheriff's office, and knocked on his door
The Sheriff quickly opened up and beckoned Tom, to come inside
They picked up three Winchesters and ammo and got ready to...

Robin treated his men down at the inn
To sexy wenches, food, mead and some gin
All got drunk on the mead
Then got high on the weed
Friar Tuck said “it’s not right it’s a sin.”

Robin’s outlaws were enjoying the night
And with the sheriffs men started a fight
The...

Five strangers rode into Bodie, a small gold mining town
They didn't look at anybody and kept their heads down
At the Citizens bank they halted, it had been a long ride
Four then entered the bank and one kept watch outside.

The sheriff heard shots and came running,...

Barbed wire seems a 'thorny' subject on which to opine,
But there arose a need for such for people and beasts to confine!
Cowpokes cussed as they worked with it mutilating their hands.
Sheepherders fussed with cattlemen as it spread across their lands!

'Tis said back in 1874 Joseph...

When Robin Hood hides in our wood
I shall not turn him out
I'll let his merry gentlemen
Hang all their bows about.

So when a swaggering M.P.
Comes riding by alone
The arrows of the hidden host
Will ring against the stones.

The horse rears up,the man looks round
To see what's caused...

They are the heroes among us
They protect us everyday,
It’s not just their job
It’s their chosen way.

They face the unpredictable
With hours that are sometimes long,
They continuously teach our children
The difference between right and wrong.

They put their lives on the line
Without fear or hesitation,
They teach the real...

catching insects sheriffs fail to warn blue
doctrines stones emit the scent between
evisceral guardians thoughts intact
feign judgements eliptical repast upon our
gains as men can see the folly laws oblige your
honor swears red moon's deputy witheld

Robin Hood was captured
Thrown in the castle cells
Here he met an inmate
By the name of H.G.Wells.
Herbert George is fascinated
By the story our Robin has to tell
but he knows Robin will be executed 
When the church sounds the morning bell.

So that night together
As the guards around...

Galloping hooves broke morn's peace in Soup Creek's Main Street
When Jimmy Smith rode in from Bar 20 his face white as a sheet
He stopped at Sheriff Koplins office and banged heavily on the door 
"What's the hells going on" shouted the Sheriff " it's quarter...

How I look forward to October the thirty-first each year!
Though the autumn be chilly and the weather a bit drear,
I have the pleasure of meeting strange little imps by the score,
As they visit, lisping "twick or tweat" at my front door!

The door bell rings constantly...

The legal system is business operated by officers and boys in the street
The legal system is a business  fashioned to target the vulnerable and the weak
The people who cannot defend themselves or don't have a voice of their own
are  ambushed abused, humiliated and...

A speaker stands upon a hill, he talks of change and hope
And while you're at the ballot box he's knotting up a rope.

A general kills another man whose children scream and cry
And while you watch the tragic news more sons are sent to die.

A CEO...

Beware of pirates without a ship
like rebels without a transportive WinWin cooperative cause,
like ego-politicians without sacred ecological-economic portfolios.

One of the ways we communicate cooperative values
and choose not to communicate disvalues
is by how and where and when
we show up
and disappear into silence;
and when and where and...
