Black Ghettoes
So now they are burning down small shop
they use daily use in rightful anger.
The police are mostly white in a black neighbourhood
which does not goes down well
Bloody guns you may say, but everyone is armed.
But my thought was of the poor black people which
now have to go a long way to shop, since it appears
they burnt down their own cars too.
It seems to me Afro-Americans have sunk into
a hole of delayed slavery depression, and struggle to
get up and fight back, not with guns, but education.
Black young man with pistol wants the good things
in life, but only find early death or a prison cell.
Pandering to this we must not, there is a limit
even for grave historical injustices, it is time to break
the chains of the past and be free men again.
