Martyrdom

MARTYRDOM? Another martyr created unintentionally By the foolish Blinded authorities A hallow champion for social wrongs A life Grabbed from the present And forced into the past The other side's new occupant A mascot for many seething wrongs A notorious black brother In a socially depraved environ Invades the nations psyche His already socially low value heavily Discounted by a bullet Issued by agents of the state A brother with a complex occupation Surviving by means Not much approved The necessity of his plight The seed of his infamy
