Oath

Have you forgotten the oath you took?

The one that goes with that badge you wear

Remember – the one that goes to serve and protect?

Including those you arrest

Who are flesh and blood like you

Or are you blinded by numbers and rhetoric?

Have you truly forgotten the oath that goes with that badge?
