Shame On Us

For us, much beauty

of nature is denied;

not by being  taken away;

but with sorrowful solemnity

we must mourn those who unjustly died;

leaving us laying them to rest day after day.

 

We can’t stop, take time and smell the roses;

racism has too many death threats that it imposes

We can’t casually walk along the beautiful sea shore;

feel and enjoy the calming, salty serene sea breezes.

Bigotry and injustices have closed the sandy door; 

and murder roams the streets and does as it pleases.

 

Shame—what a pathetic shame—shame has no fear.

No need needed for insensitivity and apathy to disappear;

old wounded justice will not get any healing attention here;

life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is no longer held sincere.
