Humanity began to grieve
Over a man, that couldn't breathe
That this reflected, an unbalanced inhumanity
As the world witnessed, a toxic insanity
As a cold, and callous individual
An audience recorded, their nightmarish vigil
They witnessed the actions, of this one man
That had oft been repeated, by others of his clan
All the rotten apples, that fell from this same tree
We're joined together, in a harsh brutality
Surely humanity, can be better than this
And love our diversity, a long time amiss
We all bleed red, and breathe the same air
As the majority of us know how to love, and know how to care
Black life's matter, as all life's should
If humanity is to advance, for the greater good
"The only thing necessary, for the triumph of evil,
Is for good men (and women) to do nothing"
Today, 20th April 2021, something good was done
And for a change, justice, and the truth won
But i have a horrible feeling, that i feel
That this convicted murderer, will shortly appeal...
