The End of the World

By Desiree’

By Desiree’Published 5 years ago 1 min read

Inside my house there is only peace

But outside I wish the senseless killings would cease.

My Black brothers and sisters are up in arms

The Latino community herded like cattle in farms.

This man is being beaten because he wants to change his gender

A cocked gun has exploded... NO WAIT please return to sender!

Another man murdered because his melanin was seen as threatening

You racist m****f***** this is your day of reckoning.

We are our ancestor’s children, the reason why they bled

Continuing to fight injustice in honor of those found dead.

Rise up young Kings and Queens an awakening is in the midst

Stay until the end, there is a plot twist.

The ascension of a nation...meditate align your chakras

Fists raised high “I’m black and I’m proud” is our mantra.

It’s the end of the world brought about by Pluto’s retrograde

The Universe is calling for order, a mass karma not to be downplayed.

It’s the end of the world normal never existed

The treatment of our race nothing less than sadistic.

Peace to all, stand beside your brothers and sisters

Support, show love, educate, be an up-lifter,

And only look back...to remember how far we’ve come.
