Fury Inflamed

Another dead body is all the score we need. This one allowed. It wasn’t interrupted. No one watching and filming was able to stop a public murder in progress.

So that your pocketbook strings can be pulled more easily another four years. These are my four years too, not yours alone. It’s morally right to plead for the path of illumination.

My heart beats as black as a clear midnight sky so many of us gather in awe under to peer at the stars with wonderment. Why can some see a vast night sky of darkness and be lifted with awe but they cannot see a sea of colored people with the identical deference? I stand, but wavering, with my fellow USA brother and sister humans who are exhausted from fighting, along with those whose ferocity is…
