Land of the Free

I was caught on somebody's camera doing something
I wasn't supposed to do. The cops arrived and took me
Away. They wouldn't say who had seen me, or what
I had done. They kept me in a room, and, after a couple
Of hours alone, terrified, wondering what would
Become of me, I confessed to whatever I'd done. I said
I was sorry, and was let go with the warning, “Don't
Do it again.”
