Sipping his coffee
A gun on his hip
Music plays softly...

A Fine Reason
A sunbather trying to bask
By a policeman was taken to task
Not because it was rude
To be lying there nude
But because she’d forgotten her mask!...

Like good policeman Chippendale stripers
    A smile on my face
    Bare in public place
In church Sundays… mama changed my diapers!

?

No!

“Why?”
She asked

“Was it Me?”

The policeman stared.

“hand over your phone, please, lady.”

“Can you tell me why you were walking alone at night?

She looks helplessly around the bare white room; there is no help, there never is, will be....

We Bleed Red White and Blue
We Bleed Red white And blue.
We bleed as a soldier is killed.
We bleed as a policeman gives his life.
We bleed as a child of many color die in the streets.
We bleed for the lost of a love one.
We bleed because we care.
We bleed because we ALL ARE AMERICANS 
WE Bleed RED WHITE AND BLUE because IT IS IN OUR BLOOD>...

A Bull-Nosed Monster
One very light night, late in the morning,
Dogs hissed with warning.
I looked out the window with my eyes closed,
A monster appeared, he was bull-nosed.
A policeman chased him with a hose,
All the way up to the river studios.
He flew with his fins into the lake,
While eating lemonade and drinking cake.

Premium Member Boyhood Fantasy
I wanted to be a cowboy
So I put on a hat
Yet I never learned to ride a horse

I wanted to be a policeman
So I strapped on a toy gun
Yet I was to young to drive a car

I wanted to be a fireman
I put on a yellow coat
Yet I could not walk in the boots

Each one a dream
A young boy's fantasy
Yet none of them ended up being me...

Premium Member A Normal Kid
I loved to play 'Cowboys and Indians'
    My favorite book was 'Little Fat Policeman'
  I really enjoyed a good minstrel show
    Desi Arnaz Jr's accent made my laughter grow

  Today I'd be a fat-shaming racist
    who culturally misappropriates to boot
  Back then I was just another 'normal kid'
    in his designer white-privilege suit...

Destiny
dont read horoscopes 
dont worship the stars
dont worship the planets
not even mars

jesus is our destiny 
for what we will become
say being a policeman
or a docter
only the lord nows
what we will become


why not worship the one how made the stars and the  animals the lord
god all mighty the one how made heven and earth

Katrina of the South
The waters rise again and flood the graves.
We named this hurricane, we battened down.
The ocean’s had enough of floating staves;
the waters rise again, and flood the graves
with names. A uniformed policeman saves
a child. Beyond his reach, two others drown.
The waters rise again and flood the graves.
We named this hurricane. We battened down....

We Are Not Amused
i would
rather spend
seconds with your

smile
than hours
with your frown

so your
majesty i am
here to please after

the applause
as your court jester
i will juggle my balls and

then shake
my sock covered
bauble but while thinking

what
a fool i am
i should have dressed

while trying
to arrest you as your
slow dancing policeman...

Wrong Guy, Guy
Wrong Guy, Guy

A pistol pressed against his skull
The policeman put him on his knees
"What's in the suitcase?" The policeman asked
Referring to the suitcase full of anchovies
nothing but samples for a trade show
Sam Adams lied.
the police opened it up and found ten kilos of hidden cocaine
the policeman took it as illegal evidence and let Sam Go....

Premium Member Settle Down
Shy, timid, quiet, bashful, meek
World is reserved for another geek.
Yes, I can fool them, that’s for sure,
Pretending to be all sweet and demure.
But then my real self kicks in.
I jump my desk, promptly begin.
Principal comes to make me stop.
A policeman comes and makes me drop.
They all say this with a gigantic frown.
You’re the teacher, now settle down!...

Speeding
Speeding!
I didn’t do it; I swear that I didn’t.
The policeman was drunk, I swear that he was.
Then he tried to arrest me, and sure enough he did.
I wish that I’d told him, that I was drunk instead.
I imagine the fine should probably be more,
But I smiled real sweetly, hoping he’d see 
I’m not a bad person, it was only speeding,
The speedometer lied, it said 53!...

Independent Investigator
Exactly just how

Morally corrupt

And bent

Either a 

Judge or a Policeman

Must be 

If they are chosen or picked

To investigate into 

Or lead an enquiry

In regards to judging corruption

Of their own 

They surely must have more

Skeleton's in their closet

Than every cemetery

In the known world 

Either that or they have

Dementia or Amnesia...

The Thief
One day, a petty thief 
Stole a piece of bread.
She dashed away in a spiff
“Stop her!”, the trader yelled.

Along came a couple who,
Upon hearing the trader’s shout,
Broke into a run too
Until they grabbed the thief by her snout.

Then came a policeman, 
Who saw the angry mob holding the criminal 
He said: “Off to the cooling can 
We go.” The bread in hand, pieces of it in his dentals....

		Cabrini-Green Projects
		Chicago

The child, age two, hammocked in the half
moon of his mother’s arms, is locked
in palsy, yet moves an eyelid as I ask, 
moves the other as his mother answers,
application form interrogation.
The father was a white policeman.
“Curiosity,” the mother says. “No more.
I didn’t go with him for money.”

Blessed
Sure, Vince,
We're all blessed...
Look at where we were born,
In a land unparalleled in time,
For that we find world scorn...
Let them hoot,  let them holler,
Fast as hell, their hand 
out for a dollar....
We defend people who
don't like us,
They never knew a word
that we call trust...
Let them yap on,
We can leave them in dust...
But on we plod,
Policeman to history....
Even though to us,
It's all a mystery......

Cops

Us..,
and
them.

They use violence.
Hurt people, 
and care not for others. 
They have their own rules,
“Chaos” is their master.

No dignity, nor worth…
No value of the soul.
Only their own…
Needs…
Wants…
Morals…
Values…
Religions…
Agendas…

The brave that wear... the "blue", 
You call, we call!
They come. 
Not slow, but fast, and just in time. 
Great risk, sad rewards…
Grateful citizens.
Thank you!...

Premium Member The Groovy Life--2021
Did you play Spin the Bottle when you were very
young?
Sitting in a big circle, you had to kiss the boy who
pointed to?
It was quite an innocent game.
Today, life has neither value nor shame!

Patriots are held in vicious scorn.
But killing a Policeman, is big fun.
God is "old hat", the Bible ?
A bunch of lies and baloney!
So, she sits there, writing profound Haikus,
With latest, live-in lover, unemployed, Tony!

A City Rap
As I’m walking down the street
I click my fingers to the beat.

The cars hoot, the tyres skid;
I hit the top of a metal lid.

Babies cry, a phone rings;
I tap my feet to sounds of things.

Children shout, a noisy crowd;
I sing the rhythm very loud.

Litter crackles, puddles plop;
I knock the wall – I cannot stop.

The policeman whistles, a truck roars;
I can hear a man who snores.

As I am walking down the street
I click my fingers to the beat....

Premium Member Gold Medal
A policeman named Abele Bibka
Never ran marathons in Korea
   Won Olympics in Rome
   Took a gold medal home
His country then named, Abyssinia



________________________________
You can't make up a name like this...
Abele was in the military guard of
then-Emperor Hailie Selassie. He
won the gold medal in 1960, back 
when most Olympic athletes were
true amateurs, training in their 
'spare time.'... Do you know what
Abele's country's name is today?!...
