Poems
Jun 2020
Let George breathe!
Unequally democratic,
Laws made equally,
punishments biased.
Kills for the Black man,
Patience for the white.
"I can't breathe"
He cried.
Phones recorded,
Yet
He died.
A black man's life,
At a packet of cigarettes price.
A white man kills,
Yet still alive.
Justice we seek.
What they had promised to provide.
Yet we take on these streets.
Again, to fight.
We take on these streets with your name in bold.
History books will proclaim you as gold.
In hopes that your name will be the last.
We will fight 7 years for your 7 minutes.
We will breathe.
We will breathe.
