"Watching" … A Poem written by Big Virge 11/3/2006

I'm … " WATCHING YOU " … !!!  
Like You … " WATCH ME " … !!!    
    
It's Really NOT COOL …    
To Watch Me Like A THIEF ... !!!?!!!    
     
Now This Story Happened To Me …      
     
I'm In The Post Office Looking In My Pockets …      
Minding My Business But As God Is My Witness … !!!    
     
A White Lady Was YES … " WATCHING ME " …      
A Box To My Right Was … " Unattended " …    
      
This Woman Made A Move ...    
That'll Prove My Point To You ... !!!      
     
She Came Towards The Box …      
Of Course I WASN'T Shocked … !!!    
     
But Then Another Woman …      
Came Back With QUICKER Movement … !!!!!    
     
It Was CLEAR The Box Was HERS … !!!!!    
But Then The First Woman Made The Matter WORSE … !?!    
     
She said,    
     
"You shouldn't leave your things so carelessly !"    
     
At This Point It Was CLEAR That She ...    
Was Referring To ... ME … !!!!!    
     
At This Point I Was … " Cool " …      
     
But Just COULDN'T Refuse … !!!    
To Start To Use My Voice … !!!    
     
I Said To … " Lady Two " …      
     
"I think it's clear, her view,    
she thinks that i'm a villain !    
So, what's a guy to do ?"
   
     
THIS WOMAN Then Replied …    
     
"That's not what she implied !"    
     
So This Was When My Time Was Spent …      
EXPLAINING CERTAIN Things To Them … !!!    
     
"What would make you think, that I'm ignorant ?    
Please state you case, and your defence !    
You need to use some, common sense !    
Acts like these may be well meant,    
but may just cause someone offence !"
   
     
Both Ladies Then Were CLEARLY TENSE … !!!      
     
Because I Posed … " Certain Questions " …      
     
"Am I a thief, do you believe ?    
A box can ease my poverty,    
or, hold the keys to my being free ?"
   
     
Of Course They Used The … " OLD EXCUSE " … !!!    
     
"Think that way if you want to !    
It's clear my dear, you have no proof !"
   
     
I Guess That's True … ???    
     
But … ???    
     
What Would You Do … ?    
If Someone Did These Things To YOU … ?!?    
     
"WATCHING" …. Yes Your EVERY MOVE … !?!    
     
Most People Would Agree With Them …      
And Say ... "It's me, who's got the problem !" ...      
     
I Guess I HAVE … !!!    
     
When People JUDGE The Way I STAND … ?!!!?    
     
It Starts To Touch My Will To CUSS ... !!!!!    
     
"Why you watching me, am I that ugly ?    
Oh sorry, of course, I look scary, and    
clearly some, think i'm a thief !"
   
     
This Exemplifies Why … " Society " ...    
Has Got Such … " IMPROPRIETIES " … !!!!!    
 It's Hard Enough For Blacks To Steer CLEAR of Police … !!!!!    
     
They're WATCHING Us Waiting To … " Cuff " … !!!    
And Nowadays SHOOT Their … Rather BIG Guns … !!!!!    
     
WITHOUT The NEED of PROOF ...    
To … Make Their Move .… !!?!!    
NOT … ALWAYS True … !!!    
     
SOME Do Their Do Without Abuse …      
But Trust In This It's Only A FEW … !!!!!    
     
Some People Now Are Acting FOUL … !!!    
And Are HOLDING Views That AREN'T  So Cool … !!!    
     
A Man At A Till In … " Sainsbury's " …    
Was NOT SO THRILLED When Seeing ME … !!!!      
     
I Was Standing WAY BACK ….....    
About …….. Eight Feet …….. !!!    
As He Paid His Bill Waiting Patiently …....      
   
He Was Gonna Tap In His …. " Chip and Pin " ….      
But Looked OVER His Shoulder As If I Had Moved Closer ...    
     
He Gave Me THAT LOOK As If I Was A CROOK … !!!!!    
     
Now ONCE AGAIN ...    
Most Would DEFEND This Mans' Movements … !!!    
     
But … Take A Sec … !!!    
Where's Your … " Common Sense " … ?!?    
     
" Chip and Pin " ... ISN'T My Invention … ?!!!?    
This Was Done By Scientists And Governments … !!!!!!    
     
THINK It Through To STEAL From You …    
I'd NEED To Have Some Pretty Good Tools … !!!!!    
     
Your Pin Number May Be … " MISUSED " … !!!!!    
By Those Who Sit In … " Rooms With VIEWS " …      
     
Big Brother's ALWAYS WATCHING YOU ... !!!!!!    
While YOU Seem To Think You NEED TO WATCH ME … ?!?!?    
     
.... THINK About It Chief …. !!!    
     
I Suggest You Use CASH If You Feel Like THAT … !!!    
But I Guess You'd Rather TRUST Your Bank ... ?!?      
     
" Embezzler huh ? " …    
     
I'm NOT THAT MAN " … !!!    
     
Your FOOLISH Fears Are NOT Well Steered … !!!    
WATCH THEM BEFORE Your Bank Account's CLEARED ... !!!    
     
It's Happening NOW And You May FROWN …    
If You FIND That YOU'VE Been CLOWNED ... !!!!!!!!    
     
By Those Who KNOW ...    
How Much You OWN And Where it GOES …    
Highs And Lows Which Goes To Show …      
We CLEARLY HAVE Some Ways To Go … !!!!!!!!!    
     
Before We See Some UNITY …      
     
From The Post Office To Going Shopping …      
It's CLEAR Some People Are INTENT On …      
     
.….. " WATCHING " …...

Author's Note
It's easy to stereotype, instead of focussing on those, in suits and ties, who truly commit the most sinister crimes !

This piece was written to prove that I, am NOT one of those guys, or a criminal type !!!
