Offensive?

Yelling out my name in a park
One man screams at me to stop
A pregnant woman puts a
Finger to her lips –
A policeman pushes me,
Sternly addresses me
I tell him he will have to
Arrest me – he swears at
Me, "Not worth the paper
Work," he says to me.
It's just my name -
Is it so very offensive?

Captivating!
I was just wondering, does it make you want to thank your parents or ask why me?
