Would Have Liked To Have Been An Artist (Thought Crime)"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although as part of the conditions I was asked to interview you  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was not made aware of what crime you had committed <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was not a crime <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then why were you arrested John <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because of a sketch that I sent to ****** ******<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">****** ******* ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No Sarah Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">****** ******<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh I see <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Was it a death threat <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dodgy photograph <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In your dreams <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then what <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I drew an anamorphic skull <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And an accurate representation of an Uzi <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I thought  that you were no artist <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a fine artist <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have never seen any of your work <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I do not paint and rarely sketch <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How did they know it was you Douglas <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I always sign my work <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Was ****** the only recipient <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How many others did you threaten <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I did not threaten anybody <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All I did was send them a sketch <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of a Uzi and an anamorphic skull <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was a warning was it not <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All that was being asked of them was that they discontinue <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nothing more <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just fade into the background and keep quiet <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is all <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thomas <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sarah Jane <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If any one of these six people are assassinated then you will be blamed <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am aware of that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will be punished <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why would I be punished <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because of a sketch <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That sounds quite ridiculous <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can see you point <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Guilty by association maybe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I agree <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sarah Jane have you ever heard of the idiom <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleight of Hand<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A clever conjuring trick <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know what it means <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am an Urban Terrorist <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I have compassion <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you agree to fade <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then no harm will come to you <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you do not then the obvious will happen <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do you propose to do this <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you will be watched no matter what I say <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They can watch me as much as they like <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will do nothing to alarm their spies <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there are others like me who hide in the shadows <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ready for my signal <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What will that be <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It will appear in a poem <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe not all people are stupid <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I agree <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Would you second guess me <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you are very intelligent Masie <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In certain ways I admire you Thomas Green and because of this I will delete this record <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will keep but one copy for my own safety <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is sensible but will not be required <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you have not and will never betray me  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Error <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
