OBSERVATIONAL POEM
Published

untitled
They say black lives do matter
but where are their thoughts when our brothers blood splatters
in patches and blothches on the pavement
MLK, GHANDI, MALCOLM X
didnt mean this
so take a stand or divide our culture
bloods versus crips
we dont need their help, we are killing each other
they say a black man doesn't stand a chance
well if a black man wont stand hand in hand with his own
how can we expect them to help when we leave our own all alone.
And sisters...my sisters... we're no better...
