Police Cell Poem by Dave Alan Walker
Police Cell
I'm sitting in a police cell
but my mind is in hell
They know I'm mentally ill
they know i'm going to say
what they want to hear
Lie after lie
I dig the hole deeper
making sure I destroy my life
They sit and smile
taking it all down
They don't care
i'm an innocent man
They sent me to prison
for another man
But twenty years on
they could not have known
that I would rise again
prove my innocence
and send them down
Twenty years have passed
and I can still smell
the despair in that police cell
Corruption in police force is very bad and if it's a culture it becomes disastrous for the innocent peoples! Nice poem.
the smell that never goes away... i know! another great poem!
Sir, its a very thought provoking poem, with a very powerful comment on autocratic societies. Thank you for liking my poem.
a good picture of the fate of many innocent people. an excellent poem
wow this is a good write.. takin your words but that is how i can describe it.. was this about you or was it just there
sometimes our innocence can't be proved before anyone......But nobody can hide the truth for ever
strong poem - your thoughts/emotion written clearly 'can still smell the despair' - another great write!
