The Peaceful Protest

As I hold up my sign,
I walk peacefully,
quietly,
but willingly,
for my rights.
Someone threatens me,
Yet, I walk peacefully,
quietly,
but unfearfully,
for my rights.
There's a gun pointed at me.
But, I don't run.
I can't run.
It's too late.
I have been shot,
in the head.
And, although I lay dead,
the sign is still in my hand,
peacefully,
quietly,
but willingly,
to protest my rights.

| I liked where that was going. 'shot, in the head' seemed a little misplaced when I read it.. but I liked it-- very powerful. |
