God Is A Bullet

God Is A Bullet

A Poem by therisa
"

Police escaping responsibility for their usage of firearms.

"
Behind
Your tin badge
You hide
Scott-free.

Like 007
Given a license
To kill
Without justifying it.

Body count mounts
With each passing day.

Who needs suicide
When you have
Your local police
For the job.

Armed
With an itchy
Trigger finger.

Just need to be
A minority
Or have
A mental illness.

It helps
If you're male
too.

To qualify
For their exit plan
Guarantee.
