the emerald gets a good polish

[the last yatto]

 bus ride into work this afternoon, group of teenagers came on and loudly complained about the overpowering smell of weed
and seem to be humorous to them, someone was brave enough to carry around the bush.  
But you know what... I did not notice the smell of anyone around me until these hoodlums came on,
and it seem to have gone away after they have left around greenlake.

Yet our fine city seem to have gone to the trouble of dispatching a video camera and two crew
almost like they were getting a story for the nightly news, except they wear kelvar
to greet us as we got off the bus downtown, taking each one of our mug shots,
just casually filmmed everyone around street, like they were making some documentary
after all its public property right?

rather that be annoyed they are wasting resources on things that should be a low priority crime
then I strug it off to the transit system's new security company being blackwater thugs.
Laugh as it wont be too long before theres another year like 1998 coming down the pikes
all because some teenage thug got her ass beat at the bus station while the previous security just watched.

what kind of smell? what kind of bush were they carrying around? cannabis? I can't make sense of your story without this info, I am afraid.

dude you should have whipped out your cell phone
and photographed them right back

is this the surveillance state or the state of voyeurism?



there is definitely a point where the amount of force
(which is supposed to look like its protecting you)
can only appear as coercive. Out of proportion.

Know why they don't make me feel safe?
because when you see a cop on the highway
coming up fast behind in your mirror
you don't think, "Thank god he's out here protecting me."

Imagine if there were a "no littering" sign in a park,
and they hired the world's most psychopathic professional wrestler to sit in the park and look threatening
just in case you fucking litter
don't you even fucking think about it
because he's been fantasizing about putting you in a leg lock all day
playing it out in his mind
so he's ready when he has to

actually shanking them was the first thought that came into my mind,
if they are stealing my soul, might as well take theirs.
but that passed and was slightly distrubing...
as i dont really consider myself a violent person,
maybe its the book im reading: FEAR AND TREMBLING

then I did think about taking their picture,
but the last time someone took a rent a cops picture in this town...
well much to say it didnt go well, then again they were servicing one of them money printing machines.
but he still got roughed up, and while i wasnt dirty, and could have at least talked to them...
i didnt want to be harass enough that I was late for work.

what kind of smell? what kind of bush were they carrying around? cannabis?

yeah weed, edited the OP

but yah but when i say bush, i was using it to descript its scent a bit
its almost like the someone had taken it out of their bag,
and was passing around a huge popsicle to show their buddies
