Blacklivesmatter Poem by Kingsley Egbukole
Blacklivesmatter
My colour is a magnet to your bullet
Anywhere a shade your glimpse sight
My blood is sweet brandy on your spongy buds
The spills purify the land my presence desecrated
Where I stand a wild beast you see
Endangered constantly I am alive
Ignorant next minute where the bullet will hit
One other burden eliminated who cares.

Very nice, capturing one of dread social ill plaguing our world today. Racism is unacceptable.
It's an excellent piece! Nice to read your poem after a long gap!

Black lives and every live matter, the human life is sacrosanct and should be treated with equality, fairness and dignity. Thumbs up for this nice piece.
The house on fire matters most, we don’t have to worry about the other houses in the street unaffected. The all lives matter slogan is obvious but ignores the specific pain. Blacklivesmatter.
All lives matter truly but the rate at which blacks are killed is alarming
