Imagination-A Poem for Michael Brown
I can only imagine
What it's like to be
Watched.
Feared.
Seen as a threat.
When I walk,
When I drive,
When I go to school.
Never knowing
When I will be
Stopped.
Searched.
Thrown on the ground.
Or when the words that I say,
Or gestures that I make,
Can lead to my death.
