“Help me help you help me” by Jon Bennett


The thing about crime is
one often finds
one must
trust someone
who has no vested interest
in being trustworthy
And so, one crime
may lead to another
be it through bribery
or a heavy handed
intimidation
In the end
one must sit
with oneself
in the blue light
of the television
wondering who has
told whom
what.
