Arrested

 He was arrested for cheekiness
He was arrested for having big hair
He was arrested for having low slung denims
He was arrested for wearing a loud tie
He was arrested for stepping on the cracks of the pavement
He was arrested for being happy at a time on national sadness
He was arrested for speeding on his skateboard
He was arrested for walking too slowly
He was arrested for having things in his pocket
He was arrested for having pockets
He was arrested for thinking the wrong thing
He was arrested for not knowing the right answer
He was arrested for staring at a seagull
He was arrested for combing his hair in a suspicious manner
He was arrested for wearing pink and green at the same time
He was arrested for wearing a brightly coloured shirt
He was arrested for breaking wind, entering a shop
He was arrested for putting one foot in front of the other
He was arrested for wearing orange trainers
He was arrested for laughing without due consent
He was arrested for being sober and orderly on a Saturday night
He was arrested for buying a newspaper, kidding on he could read
He was arrested for going to a family get together
He was arrested for assault, putting extra salt on his KFC
He was arrested for picking up other peoples litter on the street
He was arrested for being out after bed time on a week day
He was arrested for telling the truth when a lie would do
The fact that he was black had no bearing on his arrest record
