twenty-twenty’s canceled year
contagious virus threatens death
people hiding at home in fear
victim fights for final breath
under law officer’s cruel knee
“racism!” claimed as shibboleth
martyr suspect held up to be
reason for more murder and mayhem
lady justice still cries to be free
every violence we must condemn
learn to listen before we speak
protect dignity of all shades of men
