CRIMINAL BY DESIGN
CRIMINAL by DESIGN
I will not stand idle by,
to watch the nails being put into my coffin!
.
You look for weapons,
But all I have is a pen.
You look for crack cocaine.
but all I have is a goodname.
You listen for foul-inflammatory language,
but all I show is grace and a smile.
You look for violence and barbarism,
but all I have is honour and integrity.
.
You imprison me behind bars.
Fashioned from misdirected code.
Applied psychological constraints.
Obliterate me economically,
to place me in a steel bubble.
Shattered my family
and scattered the pieces.
I respond with poetry,logic,
and reasoned rhymes.
.
You criminalize an innocent man.
To remedy starvation of real evidence.
You discredit me
to infer contradictions.
For comrades who wilfully lied under oath,
in a court of competent jurisdiction.
.
You send me,
I go.
You call me,
I come.
You instruct me to speak,
I give answer.
.
My battlefield is small.
My mobility is severely constraint.
My weapons of choice,
are non lethal and meager.
I defend with cast off qualities.
I fight with morality, ethics,
and social justice.
.
I stand before you a man,
unbowed and unbroken.
I entered the fiery furnace,
reformed and regenerated.
Forged to endure the battle at hand.
I will endure!
I will overcome.
Then I shall conquer.
