Murder

                                                            A social commentary

 Say their name!

Say it loud

Say it proud

Let the world hear with no shame

 

Killing our people one by one

Violently

Can you just see

By violence with a gun.

 

If it’s not a bullet its but with their knees

On the neck of a man

Who’s trying to understand

He’s being arrested as the whole world sees.

 

Violently murdered for no reason

Snuffed out like a match burning

Slowly he dies as the world is turning

Faster and faster killing them like killing is going out of season.


 Murder the people cry out

A misstep of justice

But not for us

No justice I really doubt.

 

Murder the jury tells us

Because of a someone who wears blue

That really didn’t care less or who

As the people cry for justice.

 

Murder as the people cry out

As the people wait to hear

The verdict of a murder that was clear

And justice finally begins.      30 April 2021
