Every morning when I check my Facebook news feed,
I see the next person who got shot and killed on Chicago streets,
The next man of color who was murdered by a cop,
The next group of people blown up by bombs or terrorized in another country.
“Oh look, so and so died”, says the next headline!
#alllivesmatter
We are now one nation
Under some higher power
Divisible
With liberty and justice for most
#blacklivesmatter
When a colored man is murdered by police
He becomes a trending hashtag,
Another poor soul being sucked into the flames of society.
Where are we?
Somewhere before the civil rights movement?
People don’t choose to not be of the majority.
Blackness and color come from man made labels to depict being born on the other side of the sun.
The world is a rainbow melting pot,
But interpretation seems to think color is poison
And needs to be annihilated like weeds…
Protest after protest,
People want to murder the police,
Causing violence to multiply like fleas while we eat fear for breakfast every day…
What is the is world coming to?
The news doesn’t have much positive to say.
Magazines like to exploit how many times Taylor Swift broke up with her boyfriend.
Music likes to talk about sex, drugs, and love
Where the same 50 songs are on repeat on the radio.
Individuality is scorned instead of honored.
The constitution says all men are created equal,
A fallacy automatically indicating women are less than men.
What happened to “all humans are created equal”?
We can easily amend a law to make it illegal for women to have abortions,
But acquiring a gun is as easy as buying candy from a candy store.
Then said gun is acquired to remove the rainbows in a gay bar in Orlando
#prayfororlando
The mentally ill are thrown away into the system,
Institutionalized
And turned into a larger monster
To repeatedly be cycled into the system.
The world is a bully except to the top 1 percent white man,
Especially now that we're allowing king bigot to run our sacred country!
If we pledge allegiance to the 50 starred flag,
Why is “texit” the next trending hashtag?
Where are we?
Civil War part 2?
Enough complaining.
How many people would be willing to step in and make a difference
Instead of recording and repeating the problem?
Where is peace?
