Unnamed Poem about my arrests (you can help me name it)

[coup-detat]

Human beings are the most dangerous game
Look in a prison, they ain't got names
Like animals snarling their regrets
Into the whispers of high to low air pressures
Cans sit at my feet
Paint or beer depending
Soon, uniforms swarm like bees to a flower
Handcuffs muffle my crime and time
Sitting in the station, counting minutes like bong hits
My mits still in shackles
Police spit and cackle
They're criminals like everyone else
Time melts into a stream of events
I choose not to repent
Sins are badges like Jew patches
Everyone has a record
So spin that record
Sitting on the stand
Like judgement day
A questionairre
I ain't ever been in a jumpsuit
Thank god for being white
Not in the law's sight
Racist pigs
Huntin' nigs
Like kids hunt bugs
Light up the nugs
Ain't ever been chained for that
Service to the community shouldn't just be for criminals
Every person does the minimal
Effort for their town
With a frown
Calling out like a magpie's cry
Smell nuttin' in a tiny village
Police won't let it
Reputations to hold
They're all sold
To the higher up feds
Maybe the mob
So sob
Our system's all wrong.


[Tell me what you think, it's much more powerful when vocal. It's actually going to be put to music later, right now though, it's just slam poetry. Any suggestions for a title?]

'Swarm'

[Maggot]

"Fuck the System"

"Fuck the System"

Taken

Oh, that's right: System of a Down already has a song called that.

And the Exploited, and Citizen Fish, and Total Chaos, and Showtek, and it's also a book by Abbie Hoffman

Oh and Nasum

I was considering calling it "Chains", though I'm not sure. Thoughts?

"Chains" is also a good title.

Total Chaos is one of the best bands I've seen live.
