the blunt instruments of society
a work of Poetry by Wintermute (Brendan McCallum)



You all know the score...


Badge
baton
gun

Implements of force for those
non-violent confrontations
where 'not resisting you' remains
an invitation

Habit
wine and
bible

Perversions hidden well behind
the walls of faked virtue
where 'I am myself I love myself'
remains a call of Guilt.

Enforce. Enforce.
Whip us sinners down the
path we all must tread.

We are you we are
who we are because of you

Your path
your mindset
(if you can read this then you are too smart)
for all of the stinking souls upon this godless rock.
