Justice A L'Americain
looking bedraggled
wearing tight dirty jeans
a stria of sauce in the crease
he browsed suspiciously
fingering the slacks
in the menswear section
loitering with intent
truculent when questioned
he was asked to leave
making
white knuckled anger threats
tweaking and cloying
a pewter candle stick
in an obscene gesture
he then reversed his car
into the store front window
the police were called
due to the fact that he was
brandishing a plastic garden hose nozzle
in a threatening manner
they shot him dead
What an intense, tragic, and vivid scene this is wow! You've used the words brilliantly!
