Intensifying Peacefulness

As saintly protesters increase,

Diffused is the perfume of peace.

They’re such gentle souls,

With such peaceful goals.

Including “Defund the Police!”

This violence, this mayhem must cease!
And crime, it is on the increase!
I won’t have a gun!
So what can be done!
I know! Let’s defund the police!

— D.N. O’Brien
