Campus Showdown

The protesters scream over-the-top
Insults and accusations at the
Stressed and frustrated riot cop,
Who pauses briefly, considering
Moderation, but let's it drop,
Starts spraying the pepper juice
Into their faces, and doesn't stop...

All done in front of the cameras:
The crying, pushing, and screams,
Make for a compelling political drama...
But why is it all happening? It seems
Is forgotten amidst the posturing & trauma.
