Democrazy

Rating: 5.0


A moment of silence
For all victims of violence.........

I can't stand in silence
While the world remain silent
We practice non violence
While the cops remain violent

No convictions, suprising
Yet the death toll is rising
More afflictions uprising
While the blacks are downsizing

Bullets flying, cops are lying,
Yet these cameras show the truth
Fathers dying, mothers crying
But the media withhold the proof

Tell us lies watch us die
Who are we to let this be
Dry your eyes don't you cry
We need to form unity

You and I we can try
To gain equality
My reply don't rely
On this democracy

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Democracy is very good in itself. But when it is being mismanaged by demagogue, you guess is as good as mine - It's called 'democrazy'. Lovely and very insightful.
