WE… kneel…

As a sign… of respect…

For those, clearly wronged,

 

Whose spirits

Deserve restful peace…

 

Those …who…

Kneel down under the anthem

To the flag(standard)

As opposed(in this case)

 

Of those who sing…

Standing up…

 

And we(defer)…  

Kneel down …in prayer…

That…

Those now, responsible

For maintaining that freedom…

Resolutely, refrain…

From the taking …of…

 

BLACK LIVES

In …vain…

 

Turn a blind eye…  

With an ingrown bias

Against us,    

 

Without regard

To common law…

 

As…

Lady justice, is denied…

Once more…

A

Common …event…

 

As the great blue curtain…

Encapsulates   …as a shield…

 

Even as they break the very laws

…Designed…

 

To protect… even those

Whose pattern of behavior,

 

Goes far beyond…

Suspect

 

Beyond, even the boundaries…

Of those duty bound…

 

To

..those…

…they are sworn

…to protect…

Indeed. Respect to a Brother whose "kneeling/stand" is understood and not capped to distract, but to send the message, "...Me, you can't rack...!" Beautiful flow of the awareness of the title and various expressions of the Brother's back! Peace and Love, M'Lowe
