by the police again.

This morning my folks said I should try to unplug

from the news cycle again.

This morning I accepted I can't unplug

when it's mine dying again.

Last night, they said the murder was justified

because some sort of past crime again.

This morning proved that was a lie again.

Last night, they said wait for the facts,

trust the justice system again.

This morning, no charges were brought to that cop again.

Last night, we tried peaceful tactics, t-shirts,

bent knees, silent demonstrations again.

This morning, they dismissed us and mocked us again.

Last night, the language of the unheard was spoken

at the top of their lungs in the form

of burning buildings again.

This morning they said we were thugs again.

They said follow the law again.

We said you first again.

Last night, they said violence undermined our cause again.

This morning, we said "Then why do you keep driving tanks

"into our neighborhoods," again.

This morning, I'm dizzy again, nauseous, fearful,

frustrated, angry, detached, annoyed, pissy, exhausted,

worried, overwhelmed again.

Last night, a black man got lynched again,

by the police again.

Last night, again, this morning, again.

Here we go.
