Work Text:
in the line of duty
your work will never be done. you will wake and sleep and wake and sleep and then you will die, but the work will never end. investigation, interrogation, your work is never done. wake and burn the witches, hang the mafia, drive out the evil in this town. wake again; burn, hang, send them fleeing. your work is never done, sheriff, so shine your boots and get your badge, chat with the jailor and call the veteran back to work. it’s an old case with a new face; the mafia’s back in town. blackmail, murder, interfering with the mail, the same old story and you might fail, swamped in lies and hungry eyes you’ll drown.
but that’s of no importance: duty calls and you, as always, answer.
