Protesting in Quotes

“Stop taking pictures and save my life now!”
“Help me!”

The time to wake up America
Has come and past
we all live in fear
The time of finding out has come now.
Videotaping government agents murdering our sisters and brothers in the streets only to show outrage when they are white like you?

A Small Update From the Author
I’m still writing every single day. So, the challenge continues, but I won’t be posting each poem publicly from here on out. Some pieces need time to breathe, some are for future collections, and some belong to quieter places inside me.
You’ll still see selected poems along the way… just not all of them in real time. Thank you for walking this stretch of the road with me.
