The Arrest

Avinash Menon Wednesday, May 19, 2021
The Arrest

He heard the march of the boots

He saw their camouflaged suits

And saw their glasses shining brightly in the moonlight

In the darkest hours of twilight.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He repeated endlessly.

A shatter was heard.

He thought that they were absurd.

But just then, he knew he could say nothing

As he saw the daunting Sergeant humming

Who waited for him to give himself up.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He repeated endlessly.

They carried him to a room

Where nothing would ever wish to bloom

He felt as helpless as a baby

With the weather, it was rainy.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He repeated endlessly.

The Sergeant smiled ferociously

And his men grinned atrociously.

And he got petrified

As well as terrified.

He prayed that death never would find him

But tragically, it always finds its way.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He repeated endlessly.

The Sergeant grabbed the belt and the whip

And gave him a forced dip

Into the presence of an unwelcoming feeling.

He wanted to start kneeling

And wanted to beg for mercy

But he was never granted that wish.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He repeated endlessly.

They were done with him, at last

The Sergeant’s men looked aghast

At the state of the victim’s body.

They took him to a far away place

Where he would never be found again.

The men have done their job.

What wrong has he done

For them to treat him this way

Was freedom the cause of this?

Unfair, unfair, unfair, unfair

He used to repeat endlessly.
