bystander

A Poem by AKhaus
"

Inspired by The Legacy Museum. https://museumandmemorial.eji.org/museum https://www.cbsnews.com/video/inside-the-memorial-to-victims-of-lynching/

"
Looking on with black curves and coat.
Peering out without fear of judgement's rope.
State your name and shout it out.
The crowd will cheer as you bleed out.
Sometimes it's a world of bystanders.
What mother intends her infant to be persecuted by such false, feeble, and fearful fools?
