Knockout Game Poem by Luke Easter

A random unsuspecting person becomes the target of a sucker punch,
Is it really, Black Teens roaming the streets like, “The Wild Bunch? ”
As their selfish, gangster desires trump the rights of the world today,
When knocking unconscious not foes of equal strength but easy prey.

Furthermore, the victims are White whereas the aggressors are Black,
Every incident shows all the victims are alone in unprovoked attacks,
A wildly watched video shows James Addlespurger,50, of Pittsburg,
Warning! The video including other like attacks are racially disturbed.

Fact! Young Black men murder 14 more times than young Whites do,
Statistics,14 more times young Whites will graduate from high school,
Question: Is there a correlation to these stats since numbers do not lie?
With that being the case why hasn’t someone found the reason(s) why?

There’s a story & video of devastating attacks on The O’Reilly Factor,
Participants are real, falls are not fake, it’s not presented by actors,
1st African American President some Young Blacks show Zero respect,
By their actions regarding Obama okay so on which end is the neglect?

Trayvon Martin, Black Entertainers want to boycott Florida to this day,
Whether these incidents are increasing or not, not one word do they say,
President & 1st Lady, quick to be vocal championing the rights of Gays,
How long will the Obama’s & Black Artists keep looking the other way?

There’s been a recent onslaught of media attention, rightly there should,
Sure, innocent people get beaten in Iraqi & Afghanistan neighborhoods,
The idea behind quenching is to throw water not pour gasoline on a fire,
Each year racial tension in this country keeps getting higher and higher.

“Spreading like wildfire” maybe yes & maybe no but once is one to many,
In America, Land of the Free, Home of the Brave, there must not be any,
And yet there are violent videos proving this insane violence does exists,
Viral story perpetrated by bands of cowards? This is not an urban myth.
