~Money Can't Buy Everything~

True there are some things money just can't buy. Don't spend your life just chasing after it. There are some people who are rich monetarily, yet are broke and empty in other ways. 

~Baltimore Riot~

This is not a Black vs White thing

This is not citizen vs police thing

However, this is a right vs wrong thing

A human right thing...simple

These young people are not thugs 

they are however a people questioning a system 

a system that countlessly fails us

what you see here is more political than voting IMO. It's a cry for help 

It's the beatin' up and bruised

 looking for a way to morn. 

It really hit me last night. As a seen a white young man speak about oppression and white prevailed as if he were Black. He spoke about how his political views detached him from his parents. Isn't it amazing how someone who has a choice speaks out. Others may not have a choice because they were born Black. Poetry night amazes me you never know what you'll hear. The poetry community has found a way out.
