Ode to Barbados Free Press.
They will come.
They will come in the darkness of night.
They will come.
Black men in dark clothing, with guns and sirens blazing.
They will come.
They will smash your doors and seize your computers.
They will come.
They will drag you out of your house at 2:00 am.
They will come.
They will take you deep into the bowels of the station and beat you mercilessly.
They will come.
Cruel men. Cruel men. Cruel men.
But in all things be thankful.
But in all things be thankful.
But in all things be thankful.
For when WE come…
We won’t touch you. We won’t beat you.
We only come to watch.
We only come to watch.
We only come to watch.
For when WE come…
We will come silently.
We will come to kill your children.
