The no knock...

Unlocks the pop of police

glocks that rocks bloody

bodies 2 and fro

Bodies riddled with bullets

that have no name

But...names of darker skin

fill headlines once again

I mean...how many times

must we rewind and push

play of nationwide protest

4 injustice that we fail

2 receive

Lies and twisted narratives

of the power that be, 4 we

as a people shed tears on

cheek...broken

Spoken from grave sites

of Breonna Taylor who

slept peaceful in bed,

that no knock left her

dead when gun smoke

cleared the room

BOOM!

Tombs cry

We die

Police lie

Outcome...

Unacceptable

Powerful, RhonnieL. Indeed, when the door opens and there's no KNOCK, BOOM! Black life's death has been given without seeking or asking. Word up! my Brother. Peace and Love, mlowe5.
