The sky was a deep blue;

Sun was shining, too

I had someone to meet

Eyewitness discreet

I walked downtown

Then I heard a sound

I turned and I saw him,

He waited within;

He carried a case

At the bank, a secluded place.

My witness ,betrayed

Accepting a bribe, was afraid

Ignoring the risk,I barged in

Gun in my face, I was guarded

Extrapolated my witness

During the escalating arrest

At the station, got his statement

Proof in hand at trial to stand

20 to life, the perp inside

Justice served, wrong made right

I

I
