Another Sunny Day

another sunny day has come and will go away this is how my day began.sitting in the sun on 
the front porch of "kathy's hair salon"basking in the sun and being chocked by the clouds of 
cigerette smoke in the air.two young girls in a mustang looking cute talking o the phone 
never realized it might be there last goodbye.im swamped my mosquitos and traffic all 
around,never imagining the relity of that horrible crash sound.
bang crunch slam.spun around and flew into the ground people screaming all 
around."someone call 911'.a man came running from out of the crowd screaming outloud
to the girl on the ground.he checked for her pulse as he watched her bleed gave her c.p.r
with air to feed.no help had arrived no one coming to help only god knows whats next in this 
horrible mess.
she gasps for air but cannot move its obvious to all she lost control.no movement in her body 
no voice from her mouth who is this little girl what happend to her world?exhaust fumes mixed 
with gasoline is corroding the air still no sign of help is on the way there.to the man on the 
scene he only wants to help but to others shes a black girl and really nothing else.
to end one life to spare one more as she lays helpless on the ground.
suddenly a siren from out of the crowd rushing to help but not allowed.the crowd begins to 
throw bottles at the men on the scene,it becomes a factor that race is what they mean.little 
girl lost in a white mans town,paralized and confined and wheelchair bound.finally they get to 
help the girl but suddenly she realizes her friend might not be alive.
as they put this little girl in the ambulance she looks to her right and sees whats next.its her 
frien in the crowd standing tall standing proud giving her the finger as she walks away.
