See how Humanity hurts – self healing now.
Touch the tears through the screen, let the body feel,
the sear of hot metal burst the surprised brow.
Taste the tears – salty emotions that reel,
all the shared senses that our bodies allow.
Smell the putrid lies and hate of the ideal,
of a white Empire’s control through violence.
Hear the victim’s last breath without vehemence.
