If You Protest

a found poem by Marlon Sunderland

If you protest courageously.

If you do 

not judge

by the color of skin

but by the content 

of character.

We will live together 

Love is a beacon

it can lead you everywhere and nowhere at the same time

when it is bright you are flying like a bird

when it is dim you are drowning in sorrow so deep you can't move

The cheering of the joyous fans

calls me to the plate

The smell of fresh cut grass 

awakens my mind from its slumber

I stare into the loathing eyes
