America is Burning
George Floyd was lynched in the street;
another Black family in mourning.
A knee his noose, his subjugation complete,
America is burning.
The disaffected, outraged and weary, meet;
citizen-soldiers, their protest: a warning.
But in the White House lives deceit,
America is burning.
MAGA is prime red herring-meat,
Black Lives Matter? Stomach-turning.
America is burning.
