ODE TO GEORGE FLOYD
ODE TO GEORGE FLOYD We did away with the old huge crude shackles Free!! Our teeth, in the sun, sparkled But there will always be shackles on a George Floyd. Cheek pressed to the ground Breath is no where to be found There will always be a knee on a George Floyd's neck "He is not fucking moving" bystanders will always cry But when an eagle has its prey, all left is to fly A George Floyd will always groan while gasping till he goes quiet A George Floyd would be long gone But the clouds will hang and watch the whole city burn Yet a George Floyd will never return Where is the human that once lived inside us? What did we do to incur this curse? When will a George Floyd be able to breathe? #ThomasTee2emmBot
