If I agreed with you, this would certainly express my hatred quite well, but my experience is so different from yours, I am tempted to believe we are from different countries. But, I award a fiver for clarity.

    Yes, we are from the same country (the United States.) In fact, I am on your blocked list from a disagreement years ago. Thanks for a great review.

This is a painful senryu to read because it happens to also be true as to corruption, violence, racism and other terrible abuse of power inflicted by those who are supposed to serve and protect.
Your words come through loud and clear.
I'm sorry for your suffering at the hands of perpetrators.

Hello to you,

hmmm...well, I gave your entry 5 stars for it's VERY STRONG opinion and words.

I may not necessarily agree with it all, but I can see why you do and appreciate your creative words placed here in your poem.

It is a Great poem for your stand, truly!

I do believe the police make many mistakes and have been guilty far too often-they are only human.

Having been in law enforcement-gun, badge etc. I know many can and do break rules and then hide behind all that title entails

Great writing, truly!

Hi!

Who could argue with your unrighteous treatment? In regard to your author notes, I would guess that it is not all paranoia, but rather substantiated regard for the misuse of power and you being a target. It happens.

Your poem makes a strong statement and with great form

Linda
