Collaborative Poem Number 6 - Looters

Post by r.magnay » Tue Jan 04, 2011 5:31 pm

I havn't had time to write a full one, but this expresses my feelings pretty well!

As we sit at our computers,
we should all load up our shooters,
then go and shoot the looters,
looting victims of the floods!

Ross Magnay

Maybe we can make this into a colaborative one!

G'day Ross,

Happy New Year and thanks for joining us. Another colaborative topic. It will need to be moved (Peely please)

As we sang " ..'way in a manger"
we found floods had brought a stranger
to increase the chance of danger
It's not mozzies seeking blood..

As we sit at our computers,
we should all load up our shooters,
then go out and shoot the looters,

Stealing is a rotten crime Ross....so is murder.

Neville, stealing is a different crime to looting.....and the perpetrators should be shot...that's not murder...it's justice!

G'day Ray & all, I think a pair of cement boots then drop them in the flooded waters eh!

As we sang " ..'way in a manger"

Now here is my own little thought
for if these mongrels did get caught
their life to me is worth but nought
as cement boots would do the trick.

to hold them in the muddy flow.
An act like this would quickly show
that looting folk is not the go
and those that do the crime are sick.

As the water flows across them
they may see they are selfish men
on them it may slowly dawn then
that the crime of looting never pays

one can’t but help wish their demise
devoid of their ill gotten prize
these lowest of the low

As the water flows across them
They may see the error of their ways
On them It may slowly dawn then
The crime of looting never pays

Stripping elderly of treasure
is a cruel and perverse leisure,
should be dealt with no mean measure
of law's most judgemental ways.
