Hard times
We remember the pioneers, the Neil Armstrongs
The Ben Carsons and Tryavon Martins
and the legacy is this
We take leaps and bounds forward in this game
of life
All for one and one for all.
Even some inspirations like Ben Carson
Then as if from a deck of unlucky cards
We draw a hand of Trayvon Martin and
take two leaps backwards.
