Distancing socially, protesting socially, where does a person of honor come down?
Whether to join all the citizens protesting years of brutality by the police
Risking one’s life in a roaring pandemic, honoring blacks whom police have struck down
Opposing the risk of continued injustice as happens so frequently by the police
Thousands and thousands across our great nation, thousands and thousands have taken this risk
Some have been beaten while protesting peacefully, beaten expressing their right to speak free
Black lives really matter as does good policing; this movement is worth it in spite of the risk
Day after day crowds unique in diversity marching for justice else no one is free
Meanwhile Donald Trump, in ineptitude wallowing, puts up a barricade keeping all out
Except for his sycophants huddled within, trying to show Trump as though he is strong
However, the marchers, ignoring the President, broadcast their message that justice will out
They’ll suffer the virus, the beatings with batons to see this new movement become very strong
