‘Twas a sunny afternoon,

A man was running fast.

Much trouble was he in;

Not aware his life would soon be past.

Foolish thoughts apparent.

Slim judgment had this man.

Selling illegal guns to officers,

Not such a brilliant plan.

A shot rang out in Tulsa town.

The man had been shot down.

“Oh, I shot him. I’m sorry, the officer muttered.

Was the officer really such a clown?

“I thought it was my Taser,”

The man later died in the hospital.

Authorities were told.

The officer must be cold.
