Musings of an Aspiring Author and Poet
in
Insanity rules in our narrow world
No one is safe, especially men of color
Justice is clearly for the chosen
Undermining all that we hold sacred
Slaughter at the hands of those charged to protect
Time and again goes unpunished
Ideologues believe us civilized
Constantly calling for calm
Entrusting their fates to this broken system
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Thank you so much for the re-blog Jueseppi, I appreciate it tremendously although I wish my poems topic was one that didn’t exist. Be well my friend.
This poem was exceptional Mr. Dom. Hit home and very raw and true. Thank you for sharing it with the world.
I just wish we were past all of this, but obviously some amongst are not. I’m glad you liked it although I would have preferred to not have to write it. Peace to you my friend.
Good acrostic.
Thank you very much although I wish it wasn’t on such a terrible topic.
What will we do? It’s all part of life.
I suppose that it is, but it should not have to be that way, it truly is a disgrace and a blemish on humanity.
Thank you Dr. Rex for the re-blog, this is such an important issue that I think we need to keep it front and center, then maybe something will get done to fix it.
You are very welcome, Dom … I totally agree with you!! Since the mainstream media doesn’t do the right thing, it’s up to us … in the blogosphere to keep things going. That’s what I have learned since I started almost 2 years ago.
That’s my goal. BTW, thanks for commenting and the “follow” … if I haven’t thanked you already!! Peace …. I’m here, I will be here …. glad to connect with you!!
Same here Dr. Rex, I hope that you have a wonderful weekend and I look forward to reading more of your work. Be well my friend. :)
Right on, Dom!!
Very sad. :(
So true.
Sadly, I believe that it is. Thank you Cynthia.
I’ve just watched the video of Mr Garner and I feel sick, such shameful brutality in this world.
It really is. If the video and audio don’t tell the story then I don’t know what will. Clearly, racism is alive and well here in America, how very sad for us indeed. This is just another blemish on the our tarnished reputation. Embarrassing and disgusting.
