_____
You act
like it's your
God-given
right to
shoot me.
_____"He looked like the guy, I'm sorry, it wasn't my fault" A man screams as I feel myself bleeding out. The prick didn't shoot once, nor twice, he shot me three bloody times. Oh, I look like him? Is it because I'm African American? Or to put it rudely, because I'm b l a c k ? Black like the criminal you heard on the news?
I was just walking home.
I wasn't doing anything wrong.
Someone punches me and I fall back.
