[audriwrites]

Stop killing time

Stop

Wasting my creativity

And

Damaging my future

With incompetence

I never needed

Congratulations

I never sought

A pat on the back…

[audriwrites]

I was

Robbed of my voice

So

I cannot speak

Now

Restricted by a grave

My spirit screams to you

#BlackLivesMatter

Also...

[audriwrites]

The land of

Legalized segregation

(Redlining)

Blatant discrimination

Lynching

Mass murders

Serial killings

Gradual genocide

All conditions

Imposed by

White privilege

That doesn’t exist

To the naked eye

Because those who encounter it

Die...
