My thoughts on ferguson

I had a dream,
Then I open my eyes 
And I realized.
I live in a damage world.
Where man made fact is fiction.
And man made fiction is "common truths" usually diction.
Word choice....
It is irrelevant to those who have no voice.
When black is the presence of all color in its biology.
A diversity so beautiful, "all men created equal" a bold philosophy.
 But it's used a censor bar in a modern Cryptology.
Now Brave men will die regardless of a cause.
Some Thinking their mavericks for breaking set laws.
Some men of valor and dignity speak soundly for peace.
 Death by association,
consumes all their sanity.
A divide nation.
Painted with bloodlust and vanity 
When Both sides fire,
Which sides the liar.
Is it even possible to tell?
Their is no unity,
In the people of either community.
The motives of some is anarchy and unrest.
Where some have a virtuous stance as they die in protest.
To those who stand to lift this oppression.
Hear me as I make this confession.
Before you point,
Before you accuse.
Examine your motives.
Don't fall for a ruse.
Fight for love,
Don't love to fight.
Make a difference yes,
But lay down your arms tonight.
When the smokes clear,
And the weapons cease their scream.
We will fight with our words.
For MLK's Dream.
