Rules and The Criminal Mind

Sometimes,
I toe the line.
I listen to the AU-THOR-I-TIES.
I do
          as
                      I
                            am
                                      told.

I’m like everyone else—
Sometimes.
And I blend in.
I fade out.
And nobody can see me,
‘cause I follow the letter of the law…

But sometimes,
I break the rules.
And I don’t listen.
And I don’t abide.
I do what I want.
And I take what I need.
And I make everyone see.
I make everyone see me.
And I let them know,
By the cut of my jaw,
By the steel of my eye,
By the glint of my blade,
By the blood in my wake,
That I’m the authority.
That I’m the boss.
And that I’m breaking—
You.
