Film
Shocking
Film at eleven
And every minute
Of each day until we
Are left numb to each
New atrocity so when
Does protest of some
Wrong become only
A license to loot or
Burn while a self
Righteous few
Try provoking
Police under
Attack for
Shocking
Film at
11 or
Until
The next
Raw nerve
Pushes back.
Peaceful protest
Does not include the
Abuse and taunting of
Police nor breaking curfew
For the thrill of civil anarchy.
If they are on the street after
Curfew falls shoot them on sight
With tear gas rubber bullets
And for looters use rock
Salt and harsher gas
Not just harsh
Language
If media
Could
Even
Say
So.
Silence
On looting
Gives consent.
Peaceful protest
Must be non-violent
Or limit protests
To parks and
Stadiums
Greens
And
Blues
In a media
Hippodrome.
