Who Will Cry For the Little Boy, Trayvon Martin?


(Inspired by the poem in the movie,  "Antwon Fisher")

Who will cry for the little boy
Walking home from the store
Who will cry for the little boy
With potential galore?

Who will cry for the little boy
Armed with skittles and tea
Who will cry for the little boy
Harmless as can be?

Who will cry for the little boy
One hundred and forty pounds
Who will cry for the boy
On gated community grounds?

Who will cry for the boy
What makes him seem suspicious?
Who will cry for the little boy
Gunned down by a man so vicious

Who will cry for the little boy
Who cried and cried HELP
Who will cry for the little boy
Who fought all by himself

Who will cry for the little boy
Who had dreams of succeeding
Who will cry for the little boy
Who now lays bleeding

Who will cry for the little boy
Justice has NOT been served
Who will cry for the little boy
The system has become unnerved

Who will cry for the little boy
Who the world has come to know
Who will cry for the little boy
Made to reap where he did not sow

Who will cry for Trayvon Martin???

Will you???

GET INVOLVED!!!
