Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.
Romans 12:19 (NIV)
~~~
With two bullets in the back of the head
is justice outside the law not assured,
those officers of the law off the hook,
how they act above the law in duty
to the people who no longer trust them,
whether they ever trusted the police,
of course, falls to how people interact,
bullets do not decide justice, the law
under jurisdiction of the police
leaves much to uncertainty and desire,
letter of the law in question, duty
evaded, to serve and protect denied,
trust is a condition of duty served,
service is not service to the police,
if the Fraternal Order of Police
never acted as political arm
to thugs in blue who act above the law,
helping officers stay out of prison,
eliciting political control,
bullies in blue can end life in minutes,
although not all officers are bullies,
catch a criminal, become a hero,
kill a citizen, become a zero,
only fired from the force, four officers
facing no charges can, of course, move on,
the fact that George Floyd cannot even move,
however, since he can no longer breathe,
elicits a response for us to act,
humans known for vengeance, must not repay,
even violence will not stop murder,
as these officers are accountable,
demonstrate prudence that justice be done.
