About the murder of Mr George Floyd

Murder with callous authority Murder with casual face behold guilt and indifference behold helpless public pleading cries to mothers past and mothers now behold public death - oh, watching eyes behold the citizens’ fear to interpose behold the helpless sheep, oh lion! where came such fear? behold the face of arrogance behold the face of tyranny are you safe in your coop, chicken? where came such power? Share the barking dogs’ epiphany wake the half-asleep and world-weary clutch the scoundrels Let the pain of others be warning And the alarm of villains ring like music
