Feet keeping time
Beat meeting rhyme
Kids holding signs
Effective as iodine
Curing, procuring
Bystanders leering
Others cheering
Hearts exposed
The gods morose
Pursuit of justice
Youths restless
In the face of injustice
Color dividing
Simultaneously uniting
In the face of adversity
A generation thirsty
For equality and acceptance
The children of parents
Still comfortable with just tolerance
Differences prevalent
Progress evident
But still far from enough.
_HW 8.28.14
