Best Squad Car Poems

I'm the good bad cop,
I'm good at being bad
My partner is the bad good cop,
he's bad at being good
We make a good team,
we put a scare into the bad guys
Both of us love reading them their rights,
stuffed in a squad car,
playing the "Bad Boys" theme

It was the yellow rose of Texas that did me as she pleased;
It was a case of yellow jaundice that took me to my knees.

Dad, I remember well the night I grew up. 
I know you remember that night too...
   I know you never forgot this happening:
  
It was 1966, an early Fall night, around 10:30 when you called the police.
   Jerry had been...agitated...for...

his coffee, shoved his files in a drawer, donned his 9mm w/shoulder holster,  traded his  
Stetson for a NYPD ball cap, made for the squad car, punched...

What are my pronoun options?
The conference goer asked
He, she, it, they – anything you want – make one up even - the friendly greeter declared!
The conference goer asked the greeter if 'he' should really be an option as a pronoun choice
You know, with the issue...

It was the night before Christmas
And on this very calm night
Almost fell asleep in my squad car
When the radar unit did light

The speed was over 100
And it was climbing much higher
I radioed into dispatch
This speeder was a flyer.

Going south I told dispatch
We are going down...

When the bus first got there, the Medic was tending to Brick and it took 
all of five minutes for that to turn around. Brick was tending to the nurse.  
No surprise, Bill thought to himself grinning. Girl never had a chance, and he...

Have you ever needed help?  Been car-jacked, beat-up, robbed?
Did local thugs come to your aid, or did they help the mob?
What's that?  Someone took your purse, car keys, and your phone?
Did the thugs come help you then, or leave you all alone

They asked...

For example a Dachshund dog was thrown 5 floors to his death
The owner photographed this and posted it online
His dog looked like he was sleeping but was dead

I tracked the Dachshund Dog’s Killer down and killed him
I put him in an 80s violent video game...

I was sipping on some whiskey when a black cat crossed my trail;
There was a black magic woman that liked to swish her tail.
   It was a black Cadillac that took my daddy to his grave;
   It was a black beauty...

I really wish I were free from the clutches
You have put over me
You’ve got me bruised and choked and hurt
And covered my eyes so I can’t see.
I cannot show my abuse 
Or my longing for my freedom 
I wish I were sometimes all alone
Marching to...

Twenty Twenty Dollar Bills,
Sticking out of twenty jacket pockets,
Of Twenty Zoot-Suited Mexican Hoods

Leaning on Twenty 1940's cars,
In Twenty different shades,
With Twenty Female Mexican Cuties,
In twenty short cut dresses...

Twenty squad cars nearby,
In case Twenty crimes are made,
Twenty pre-assuming a cop,
I came by on my donkey,
"Twenty Drops...

The signs were always there if I’d but seen.
But blinded by desire I overlooked…
And life is nothing like the silver screen,
The scene is done but somehow I’m still hooked.
It doesn’t take a prophet or a seer
To see there is no future now for us.
For you...

Which one to choose?
Airplane? Fire truck? Police cruiser?
My toddler wanted a chance to get in all of them.
I was glad we were given all three choices.
He was excited to be here! Glad as hops!
He’s so easy! The beautician said.
He was excited, jabbering, happy.
Until the scissors...
