Black Livies Matter, It's Time To End Racial Injustice Poem by Tulsi Shrestha

Black lives matter, it's time to end racial injustice
My heart breaks, bleeds and gets disturbed
When I heard, A heinous atrocity committed
In the name of maintaining law and order, by
A responsible police officer kneeling on neck of
An innocent black American, George Floyd
Until he chocked to death, how horrible it is!
A man complaining "I can't breathe, I can't
Before his last breath for ultimate departure.
It isdefinitely a crime against humanity.
Along with all lives, black lives too matter.
Discrimination isn't acceptable at any cost.

No doubt, it's A matter of shame for America.
Anger of people over the death of an innocent
Turned wild and ignited whole parts of state.
The whole nation, suffering due to evil spirit of
One culprit officer accompanied by other three.
The issue is linked with a sense of Supremacy of
Skin color and the glory of white nationalism.
Black lives matter is their logical button line
Demanding Justice for George Floyd, protesters
Exhibited multiple demonstrations, everywhere.
They confronted with police forces & water cannon,
Demanding the state to convict four alleged cops.
Protesters marched, destroying public properties
The situation turned more horrible and painful
When some of protesters indulged in breaking
Department stores and setting fire in vehicles.
The sight of looting, throwing stones and violence
Enough to make owners of stores, weep in pain.
If a hungry person steals bread, is beaten to death
But here, some of protesters, noted, came in cars
To steal clothes and shoes, breaking so many stores
Which, belonged to not only white but also black owner.

Now, I feel compelled to speak as it's my obligation
Rioting is not humanistic way to explode anger
Profit taking from death of your beloved one.
It is definitely no way to pay respect for victim
Not rational from the view point morality.
Darkness can't drive out darkness, you need light
The govt doesn't manage public properties
From its own pocket, you have already paid
In form of tax and revenue, hence they belong to you.
Indirectly you are destroying your own properties.
All cops are not bad, evil man prevails everywhere.

Some where, police have kneeled down to show
Solidarity with their demand and joined in parade
of protesters on honour of George Floyd.
Hence, Please, it is time to stop violence and think
In favour of national unity, peace and harmony.
Let stand against racial prejudice and attitude.
Fight against injustice and inequality in peaceful way
Be proud to be citizens of
Land of freedom Love & opportunity, Indeed it's America
It is time to stand together and unite
To combat and conquer pandemic.
For the restoration of economic stability.
