Police Brutality? Our Reality?


Twisted lies and teary eyes

These news titles on the rise

Wrong perspectives, strong objectives

Activists are the real detectives

Police brutality? Our reality?

Families surviving on calamity

People are dying! Who is lying?

Media! What are you implying?

Dramatization leading to aggravation

Exaggeration for more compensation?

The world news getting more views

Yet people are still abused  

Eyewitness, bit suspicious

Judges being injudicious

False accusation, sturdy allegation

All creating this frustration

Needing solutions. United contributions?

We are not afraid of revolutions.
