#icantbreathe

There the man lay, still,
“I can’t breathe” he had whimpered,
Alas! His words went unheard,
Heavy with extreme grief and resentment, protests clamored against the white walls painted in racism,
The white snow and the black mountains,
The silvery-white moon and the dark night skies, “The epitomes of contrasting elegance” whom man labels,
They all looked down at the street, hushed in shame,
There a white man knelt on a black man’s neck, “I can’t breathe” the black man cried, till he died a brutal death. -rustleofleaves89
