The Blame Police

They talk a blue streak, don't cha know,
the ones who say we should be tough,
but that's the shit in their shit show
of exclusion by such hateful stuff
knowing no one wants to seem weak;

that's the bully's foot in the door;
the peer pressure they love to tweak
when denigrating the sick and poor.

Unable or unwilling to see
their accusatory finger
is calibrated for misery
as the other fingers linger...

pointing straight back as if to name
the instigator of that game.
