RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: POLICE STATE
Marimar Martinez
Shot down like a rabid dog
On a rampage in Chicago
When they finally cleared the fog
The facts were clearly known
She sounded an alarm
To the folks in her community
They meant to do her harm
To break Chicago’s unity
But cameras showed the story
The border agent lied
They stripped him of his glory
He’s lucky no one died
He tried to take her life
For standing up to her convictions
You could cut it with a knife
The tension and suspicions
You are not wanted here
Go back to where you came from
You are only spreading fear
Like the pounding of a war drum
Marimar is a hero
A bold and shining light
A light that ever grows
A force for good and right
