Some call him pig
On his first night on duty. A call from the emergency room. Twelve year old girl beaten and raped my her father. Hands clamped over her eyes as quite as a tomb. People stood around her seemed to talk in a blither. He asked some questions for his incident report. The doctor handed him a sterile hospital form. Between sobs she murmured to the rape center support. He remembered something out in his car. On the dash was an object from his own child. Something to remind him. A small teddy bear. He took it back in. The nurse gave a smile. He held out the toy fighting back a tear. The girl in the bed shyly held out her hand. Took the bear and clasped it to her chest. Yes some call him a pig But please try to understand. Not all are bad cops. Some are the best. Written July 26th, 2001 © on Jul 26 2001 01:09 PM PST 0 • 10
