Have you ever unintentionally broken the law?
Me? Break the Law? Never. (Probably.) 🚦
.
Me?
Break the law?
Please. 😌
.
I’m the kind of person
who reads the instructions on a medicine strip 💊
and thanks it for its service.
.
I have never broken the law.
Knowingly? Absolutely not. 🙅🏻♀️
Unknowingly?
Let’s not investigate too deeply. 👀
.
Maybe I’ve treated a yellow traffic light 🚦
like it was a motivational quote
“Go for it.” ✨
.
Maybe I’ve clicked “I Agree”
on Terms & Conditions 📱
longer than my life story
without reading a single word.
If that’s a crime,
I deserve a digital arrest warrant. 🚨
.
Maybe I returned a library book 📖
one day late
and lived 24 hours
as an underground fugitive
in my own head. 🕵🏻♀️
.
Maybe I crossed the road
two steps away from the zebra crossing 🚶🏻♀️
because my patience expired
before the signal did. ⏳
.
I pay my taxes. 💼
I stand in queues. 🧍🏻♀️
I silently judge queue-breakers. 😏
I even whisper “sorry”
when I bump into a table. 🙈
.
Criminal mastermind?
Hardly. 😇
.
My biggest illegal act
is overthinking harmless things 🤯
and sentencing myself
to guilt
without a trial. ⚖️
.
So yes
if I’ve ever broken the law,
I did it so politely
so softly
that even the law must’ve paused and said,
.
“Was that a violation…
or just a slightly enthusiastic human?” 🤔
.
I’m not a lawbreaker.
I’m just human.
.
And as far as I know,
that’s still legal. 😉
