Member-only story
The world is on fire.
You see it, I see it, all around —
we see the burning flames.
Yet, the same 20/20 vision fails time and time again —
to see injustice being served up when a Black woman is killed by unfriendly fire-power.
Now, we the people, her people, her village —
still do not rest, or know justice until it is fully applied.
We remain restless as we #sayhername.
Tell me, what does justice look like to you today?
The world is on fire.
This seems right to me.
I stay ready for the gut punches, but not desensitised to the pain.
In a world in love with war, death, corruption and destruction.
In every teachable moment, humans just refuse to learn.
Fire, do your thing.
As the world tumbles down,
let it fall — let it burn.
