Black Lives...Do Matter...As Well Poem by James B. Earley

This message..in shatters
...It's all torn to tatters
Thus denying that all life matters
Folks feeling....compelled
....Disparagingly sell
Black lives...don't matter...as well

...There ain't no denying
Yet often when complying
People...of color...still dying
...No amount of complaining
Has ceased.....death's raining
That same old behavior retaining

...Semantics...theatrics
Bigoted tactics....
Inhumanity's continuing antics
...Emotionally compelled
To disparagingly....sell....
Black lives....don't matter....as well
