One of Many

I am the cop on the street.
Your street.
Going after the bad guys.
In the house next door.

I am the blood in my veins,
The rain running down my nose,
The voice on the radio.

One of many.

On the perimeter
Poised to strike
To neutralize any threat.

I am the bringer of justice,
The vessel and the sword.

One of many.

Drawing a thin line around evil.
Keeping you safe to sleep
For another night.
