My Street Unsaved

The lights flicker, it wasn’t the same

I smelled the remnants of the heartless shame

Full of grace when he entered the door

His presences is now silence as he walks no more

My knees felt the solid stone as I crashed with a thud

All I feel against my skin is the warmth of his blood

I dare not stare or even make a sound

I can’t believe how many people are standing around

How dare they see this as their entertainment?!

Standing around in pure amazement

The blurry scatter as the whirling siren shrieks

It’s been forever since we called to speak

Here in the concrete jungle they don’t care

If your body lays half dead and in disrepair

I could see him gasping for a drink of air

Warming up the machine and saying “Clear”

It hurt as they dragged me away

I don’t even know if he’s ok

Idle chatter of yesterday took place

All I could think of is ‘their time a waste’

Shouldn’t you be worried that this soul could die?

Are you even concern who done this and why?

Frantic elusions of pain numbed so deep

I launched for the white coat to make him see

They think I am crazy, just ‘cause I speak

“But this man is someone’s child” I screeched

I watched on the stoop as they walked around

This man’s body still lying on the ground

I don’t see how this is justice

Does anybody care?

My heart weighs heavy as I scream into the air

They grabbed me and my skin felt a pinch

Keep me quite so I can’t flinch

To say his uniform was that of divine honor

They took it away before he came to his corner

Silencing a man who knew too much

Know that no one would be in a rush

To save a man who grew up in the ghetto

Those rushing sirens now seem shallow
