Sharper Love

We’d stay sharper too
if we watched each others’ sixes
by checking each others’ hate

Innocence trumps ancient brotherhoods

You’re not helping anyone
if you turn away
as someone hides
behind collar and cross
badge and shield

Upholding the law
stopping the sin
requires a love
that’s willing to bleed

Fight for Right
