Poetry -- Crip Picket

Steven Brown


CRIP PICKET

Gonna start a crip picket
Get out of the bureaucratic sticky wicket
Stuck in the middle of a
"we know what's best for you" thicket
Want so desperately to be part of the
crip police going round handing out tickets.
Stop feeling like a squashed cricket
Telling all those turkeys where to stick it.
