It’s one of those nights

  1. I went to sleep in a world
  2. Where it’s ok to drive over
  3. Someone raising their voice in anger.
  4. Where a man we should be able to trust speaks
  5. of declaring war on his own people
  6. I don’t have much in this game.
  7. It’s not my family that lives through the police brutalizing them.
  8. It’s not my friends getting shot for innocent actions.
  9. It is my police that have learned to kill first instead of protect first
  10. and that is not ok.
  11. But will anything change?
  12. I have my doubts. These voices raised in anger, have raised them before.
  13. And it seems no one hears.
