Poetic Justice


(poems go here) Every minute, every moment You see black and white Not together nor mix Just black and white One black girl wonder out loud “We shall be treated equally with dignity Not because of our skin and color But because we are a human being We are the same as one” Civil rights is freedom She continue to say We shall not be imprisoned any longer Lynching and beating shall cease
