Walking Forward to the Beginning (Book 5)

Snitch

What if you knew something
Something that could hurt someone
You knew
But could possibly save their life
And others

Would you snitch?

What if that person was reckless
And didn't really belong in
This reality entirely
Due to mental illness

Would you snitch?

What if their own family
Was compliant to their problem
Without understanding the
Full impact
Pure enablers

Would you snitch?

There's nothing in it for you
Other then getting that someone
Out of possibly killing themselves
And others

Would you
Could you
Snitch

For where does the line of knowledge
Cross from none of your business
To
Feeling guilty for knowing

Could you
Would you
Snitch

On a friend
You've known since childhood
They'd never done anything illegal
Before

But now
All has changed
And yet you are stuck
Between a rock and a hard place

Let karma do her thing
But perhaps watch the friend be
A danger to self and others
Would you be able to live with
Those consequences

Or take a different
Anonymous path
One of a higher authority
Make the call
Snitch

The moral dilemma is overwhelming
But answer the question
Would you, could you snitch?
