The Day Habeas Corpus Died (Free verse) by Wakeboarder20
So I heard someone somewhere
can do something with Mr. Habeas.
It's bad if you're a terrorist
and the government wants you
or something like that.
Anyway, did you see Emmit?
Boy, for being a big guy
he sure can dance.
I had a thought the other day
but gave it up to watch tv.
I think it was about human rights
whether theyâre still here or not
or something like that.
But who cares, this reality
well itâs not as good as tv reality.
Definitely not as important.
So Mr. Habeas passed away.
I donât remember what he did.
Something with bad people.
Anyway, heâs long gone now.
I wonder where I was
the day Habeas Corpus died?
Wasnât there a baseball game on?
