Evrod Samuel Poet Prose

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
