Then the arrests and trials began
like some preordained military plan.
The captured thieves from west and

gang members snarling like wounded
beasts.
As their crimes were called
like children they cried and bawled
and pleaded for their mums
but no sound comes
except the sound of sirens...
Now it's time to count the cost,
small shops ruined, buildings lost.
And what of the people killed
by mindless thugs seeking thrills
and DEMANDING some respect
while pleading neglect
ignoring the sound of sirens...
The politicians fret and moan
"These kids come from broken homes,"
"But not our fault," they say
and Teresa May states
"The cuts will go ahead."
Go tell the dead...
as we hear the sounds of sirens.
