leave the robot dogs
in the equipment yard
strip off the military gear
if you’re not SWAT
melt the tanks
into scrap metal
for infrastructure
treat Black and Brown people
just like White people
learn to take a deep breath
before drawing taser or pistol
and stop treating the poisonous apples
so quick to judge and execute
as if they should get
a Medal of Valor
for wearing a uniform
they don’t deserve
boy of 17 with no impulse control, all fired up
all too ready to spray 80 seconds of bullets
now on trial with an adoring judge running the show
>
consequences, what consequences can there be
for this killer child who hitched a ride
in the flatbed of the virtual extremist pickup truck
rehearsing his fake ugly cry for mainstream media photos
>
jurors, heal some of America’s wounds
send Young Master Rittenhouse to prison
don’t let this terrorist win
