White

Minneapolis, MN – August 2016

Surrounded by whiteness

Sitting in a Starbucks

Surrounded by white

Blind and even the cane is white

Walking in blackness

But all I see is white

How long will it be black and white?

How long will it be us and them?

I am the other and the other is me

Broken and sinking in a sea of hate

Gasping for air

A bullet shot through the lungs of humanity

Surrounded by white
