Absolute K Ice

Absolutely, this avoidable chaos

Is driving everybody very uncomfortable

Police rhymes with Minneapolis

But Ice does not rhyme with peace

Ice rhymes instead with lice

Ices rhymes with mice

And Ice rhymes with price

The insanity that is seeing at the table.

Ice rhymes with vice

Ice rhymes with skice

And Ice rhymes with Alcatraz

These yikes are causing an impasse

Which creates an awful mess

And an unnecessary chaos

In every street in many cities

Especially in Minneapolis.

I have been to Minneapolis

At the time, there was no trash, no snow and no ice

Many years ago, I also visited the Twin Cities

The people were nice and courteous

These days, there’s a mayhem every second in their streets

People are throwing heavy duty profanities

Such mother flowers in the face of the bad police officers

And the paramilitary bullies

Who act like judges, henchmen and offenders.

Gangsters like tigers are roaming the streets

Democracy is comatose and cruelty is working the beats

America has not seen so much atrocities

Since the turbulent sixties

When rightfully so, the often victimized minorities

Were fighting for equal rights and better opportunities

Ice rhymes with chaos, not peace

And ice rhymes with vice, not justice.

P.S. This poem is dedicated to the victims of all types of violence

And injustice.
