Mindless Judgement

Mindless judgement

I wonder when racism is going to end.
I hear loud screams and cries. 
As if a… lightning beam hit individuals. 
 who seem to be walking without a worry in the world.
 with smiles on their faces and with a single blink.
Every two seconds lives are ending. 

“BRATATA”  the shotgun goes off.
 someone else has been shot down by the ones 
who are supposed to protect us. 
Badges on their chest to shield themselves.
 It has nothing to do with just us but to crush us.

I see people doing nothing but stare at the scene
 their hands weigh in their pockets heavy with guilt and sorrow. 
The bleeding never stops, The greed has controlled us.
 How can Minds be so narrow? Instead of finding the actual criminal hustling Xanax and ecstasy.
they find the most innocent out of the bunch and munch them till they crunch.
 Once they’re through they have no remorse, the police force lead to someone's demise
 I worry about this continuing will there be a difference in the nation's population?

In the back of our heads the word MIGRATION 
 It will be just like a vacation.
 that will never end.
Donald trump will be happy with the idea right? He enters the room to a standing ovation.
In his eyes The U.S will become “great” and bright but instead he is just instilling us with fright. He carries nothing but baggage.
As the count decreases so will our intelligence.
What did Malcolm x and Martin Luther king jr. die for?
It pains me to see the people of my color going extinct.
 I  worry. Am I next?
Am I not safe anymore?
As my blood pores on this paper, I feel like I’m climbing a non stop mountain.
 sweat drips.
 1, 2, 3
 I can’t breathe.
I hope to god one day this beautiful earth will be filled with all the colors ever created.
I want to see kids playing, waving.  It would be amazing.
I want to see grown ups sitting on chairs on the beautiful grass and sharing laughs just having a blast.
Even if it means that I have to be in the sky high looking down at the once horrific universe but now if you observe it is more well rounded and grounded. 
I pray, it becomes that way.
