I'm … " WATCHING YOU " … !!!    
Like You … " WATCH ME " … !!!  
    
It's Really NOT COOL …    
To Watch Me Like A THIEF ... !!!?!!!    
    
Now This Story Happened To Me …    
    
I'm In The Post Office Looking In My Pockets …    
Minding My Business But As God Is My Witness … !!!    
    
A White Lady Was YES … " WATCHING ME " …    
A Box To My Right Was … " Unattended " …    
    
This Woman Made A Move ...    
That'll Prove My Point To You ... !!!    
    
She Came Towards The Box …    
Of Course I WASN'T Shocked … !!!    
    
But Then Another Woman …    
Came Back With QUICKER Movement … !!!!!    
    
It Was CLEAR The Box Was HERS … !!!!!    
But Then The First Woman Made The Matter WORSE … !?!    
    
She said,    
    
"You shouldn't leave your things so carelessly !"    
    
At This Point It Was CLEAR That She ...    
Was Referring To ... ME … !!!!!    
    
At This Point I Was … " Cool " …    
    
But Just COULDN'T Refuse … !!!    
To Start To Use My Voice … !!!    
    
I Said To … " Lady Two " …    
    
"I think it's clear, her view,    
she thinks that i'm a villain !    
So, what's a guy to do ?"  
    
THIS WOMAN Then Replied …    
    
"That's not what she implied !"  
    
So This Was When My Time Was Spent …    
EXPLAINING CERTAIN Things To Them … !!!    
    
"What would make you think, that I'm ignorant ?    
Please state you case, and your defence !    
You need to use some, common sense !    
Acts like these may be well meant,  
but may just cause someone offence !"    
    
Both Ladies Then Were CLEARLY TENSE … !!!    
    
Because I Posed … " Certain Questions " …    
    
"Am I a thief, do you believe ?    
A box can ease my poverty,    
or, hold the keys to my being free ?"    
    
Of Course They Used The … " OLD EXCUSE " … !!!  
    
"Think that way if you want to !    
It's clear my dear, you have no proof !"  
    
I Guess That's True … ???    
    
But … ???    
    
What Would You Do … ?    
If Someone Did These Things To YOU … ?!?    
    
"WATCHING" …. Yes Your EVERY MOVE … !?!    
    
Most People Would Agree With Them …    
And Say ... "It's me, who's got the problem !" ...    
    
I Guess I HAVE … !!!    
    
When People JUDGE The Way I STAND … ?!!!?    
    
It Starts To Touch My Will To CUSS ... !!!!!    
    
"Why you watching me, am I that ugly ?  
Oh sorry, of course, I look scary, and    
clearly some, think i'm a thief !"    
    
This Exemplifies Why … " Society " ...    
Has Got Such … " IMPROPRIETIES " … !!!!!    
It's Hard Enough For Blacks To Steer CLEAR of Police … !!!!!    
    
They're WATCHING Us Waiting To … " Cuff " … !!!    
And Nowadays SHOOT Their … Rather BIG Guns … !!!!!    
    
WITHOUT The NEED of PROOF ...    
To … Make Their Move .… !!?!!    
NOT … ALWAYS True … !!!    
    
SOME Do Their Do Without Abuse …    
But Trust In This It's Only A FEW … !!!!!    
    
Some People Now Are Acting FOUL … !!!    
And Are HOLDING Views That AREN'T  So Cool … !!!    
    
A Man At A Till In … " Sainsbury's " …    
Was NOT SO THRILLED When Seeing ME … !!!!    
    
I Was Standing WAY BACK ….....    
About …….. Eight Feet …….. !!!  
As He Paid His Bill Waiting Patiently …....    
    
He Was Gonna Tap In His …. " Chip and Pin " ….    
But Looked OVER His Shoulder As If I Had Moved Closer ...    
    
He Gave Me THAT LOOK As If I Was A CROOK … !!!!!    
    
Now ONCE AGAIN ...    
Most Would DEFEND This Mans' Movements … !!!    
    
But … Take A Sec … !!!    
Where's Your … " Common Sense " … ?!?    
    
" Chip and Pin " ... ISN'T My Invention … ?!!!?    
This Was Done By Scientists And Governments … !!!!!!    
    
THINK It Through To STEAL From You …    
I'd NEED To Have Some Pretty Good Tools … !!!!!    
    
Your Pin Number May Be … " MISUSED " … !!!!!    
By Those Who Sit In … " Rooms With VIEWS " …    
    
Big Brother's ALWAYS WATCHING YOU ... !!!!!!    
While YOU Seem To Think You NEED TO WATCH ME … ?!?!?    
    
.... THINK About It Chief …. !!!  
    
I Suggest You Use CASH If You Feel Like THAT … !!!    
But I Guess You'd Rather TRUST Your Bank ... ?!?    
    
" Embezzler huh ? " …  
    
I'm NOT THAT MAN " … !!!    
    
Your FOOLISH Fears Are NOT Well Steered … !!!    
WATCH THEM BEFORE Your Bank Account's CLEARED ... !!!    
    
It's Happening NOW And You May FROWN …    
If You FIND That YOU'VE Been CLOWNED ... !!!!!!!!  
    
By Those Who KNOW ...    
How Much You OWN And Where it GOES …  
Highs And Lows Which Goes To Show …    
We CLEARLY HAVE Some Ways To Go … !!!!!!!!!    
    
Before We See Some UNITY …    
    
From The Post Office To Going Shopping …    
It's CLEAR Some People Are INTENT On …    
    
.….. " WATCHING " …...
It's easy to stereotype, instead of focussing on those, in suits and ties, who truly commit the most sinister crimes !

This piece was written to prove that I, am NOT one of those guys, or a criminal type !!!
