(418)▪︎[ What Would That Word Be? … 5•17•2021 ]

[ The Footage Sparked Outrage Across The Nation ]
[ America Has Now Been Reduced To Fractions ]

[ This Fraction Of People See’s The George Floyd Murder
     Tape This Way ]
[ Another Fraction Of People See The Tape ]
[ & They Decided That They Sure Had Alot To Say ]

[ A Paramedic In-Training Tried To Give Floyd Some Medical
     Attention ]
[ To Check His Pulse & Breathing ]
[ Not To Administer Medication ]

[ Christopher Martin Stated That He Wished That He Had Never
     Made The Call ]
[ That Started This All ]

[ He Has Been Racked With Guilt Ever Since Then ]
[ He Feels That If He Would Not Had Made The Call, None Of This
     Would Have Happened ]

[ In The Video He Had His Hands On His Head Looking & Acting
     Stressed ]
[ Thinking That He Caused All Of This Mess ]

[ That Stress Should Not Have Been Laid Upon His Young
     Shoulders ]
[ How Will This Affect His Life, As He Grows Older? ]

[ How Many Of Those Bystanders Called 911? ]
[ Because Of Chauvin’s Actions ]
[ The Only Thing That Chauvin Did Not Do, Was Use His Gun ]

[ The Fault For This Lies Squarely On Chauvin’s Head ]
[ It Was Completely His Actions That Caused George Floyd
     To Be Dead ]

[ Those Bystanders Witnessed A Murder Right In Front Of
     Their Eyes ]
[ Because Of The Police Body Cams & The Bystanders Recording
     EVERYTHING On Their Phones ]
[ The Public Did Not Have To Be Forced Into Believing All Of The
     Police Officers Lies ]

[ Oh, I Am Sure That The Officers Would Say That Floyd Died
     From Acute Problems ]
[ Because Of The Drugs In His System ]

[ Chauvin’s Body Language During That Whole Video Showed
      That He Was Very Relaxed ]
[ While Floyd’s Breathing System Was Taxed ]

[ Chauvin Did Not Show Any Sign That His Life Was In Any
     Danger ]
[ Chauvin’s Demeanor Seemed Calm ]
[ There Was No Sign Of Anger ]

[ Floyd Had @ Least Two Other Cops Holding Him Down ]
[ Floyd Was A Very Large Man ]
[ Nobody Was As Big As Him Around ]

[ That Did Not Mean That He Deserved To Be Tortured ]
[ While He Was Being Murdered ]

[ Chauvin Did His Part ]
[ Because He Had Evil Intentions In His Heart ]

[ Chauvin Did Not Seem Affected By George’ Condition
      When He Got Up ]
[ Maybe Because Floyd Showed No Wounds Or Cuts ]

[ Outwardly Floyd Looked Fine ]
[ He Wasn’t ]
[ Because Chauvin’s Actions Caused Floyd To Die ]

[ Everytime That I See That Video I Try To Come Up With
     The Right Verb ]
[ But I Keep Coming Back To The Same One … Disturbed ]

[ 264 ][ Chauvin’s Trial … 3•30•2021 ]

[ Right Now I Am Watching The Chauvin Murder Trial ]
[ I Don’t Think That I Should ]
[ But I Cannot Reach For The T.V. Dial ]

[ To Change The Channel & Watch Something Else ]
[ I Guess It Is Like Watching A Big, Slow Moving Train Wreck]
[ I Can’t Seem To Help Myself ]
[ To Keep Me From Doing What I Shouldn’t Be Doing
     In Check ]

[ This Is Something That I Thought I Would Never
     Watch ]
[ Because The Background About This Topic Is Still
     Socially Hot! ]

[ In A Couple Of Seconds Of Time ]
[ My Thoughts Immediately Started Making Up Rhymes ]
[ That Is What Pushed Me Into This Direction ]
[ Of Writing A Story About This Incredibly Heinous
     Crime ]

[ Yes, I Call It A Crime, Because It Was A Murder ]
[ What Chauvin Put Floyd Through That Day Was Nothing But Torture ]

[ This Was One Of The Most Disturbing Videos That I Had Ever Seen ]
[ & Chauvin Stayed Really Calm ]
[ While He Was Doing Something Really Mean ]

[ That Cop Chauvin Intentionally Murdered That Guy, George Floyd ]
[ Because For Almost 9 Minutes & 29 Seconds, He Was Kneeling On Floys’s Neck & Deltoids ]

[ I Have Watched Many Crime Shows & Movies In My Past ]
[ From What I Saw ]
[ Chauvin Made Sure That Floyd Would Not Die Very Fast ]
[ & Since I Watched The Video From The Start To The Finish ]
[ The Image In My Memory Of Floyd Dng, Will Last ]

[ It Wasn’t The Crowd Noise ]
[ That Drowned Out Floyd’s Voice ]

[ It Was Death, That Took His Voice Away ]
[ Never To Be Heard, On Another Day ]

[ When The EMT’s Finally Came ]
[ Chauvin’s Position Remained The Same ]
[ When Anybody Would Go Looking For Blame ]
[ For Floyd’s Death ]
[ Everyone Should Say, Chauvin’s Name ]

[ Chauvin Did Not Even Get Off Of Floyd’s Neck ]
[ So The EMT’s Could Quickly Make A Check ]

[ But The EMT That Walked Up To Chauvin, Did Not ]
[ Why Didn’t He Check For Floyd’s Pulse, Right There @ That Spot? ]

[ It Was Making My Stomach Sick ]
[ To Realize, That Was The Call That They Picked? ]
[ To Not Do Anything Quick? ]

[ An EMT Leisurely Walking Up To An Injured Person Did Not Make Any Sense ]
[ He Walked Into A Situation That Was Incredibly Tense ]
[ If Asked During The Trial ]
[ What The Hell Would Be His Defense? ]

[ There Was No Apprehension ]
[ But All Around The Crowd ]                   [ There Was A High Amount Of Tension ]

[ Whenever EMT’s Came To My Residence ]
[ They Moved Around With So Much Skill & Confidence ]

[ & Without Blinking ]
[ They All Had A Laser Focus Type Of Thinking ]

[ Why Didn’t They? ]
[ @ That Specific Time On That Specific Day? ]

[ It Was Like Before Their Arrival, The EMT’s Had Already Read ]
[ (DON’T BE IN A HURRY … ) ]
[ Because This Suspect, Was Already Dead ]

[ To Me, That Was Very Confusing ]
[ & The Whole Time That Chauvin Was Killing Floyd Under
     His Knees ]
[ Chauvin Looked Like He Thought That The Whole Situation Was Very Amusing ]
[ When He Finally Stood Up, He Seemed Like He Was Happy & Pleased ]

[ The EMT WALKED Back To The Ambulance While His Partner Was Unloading The Gurney ]
[ Not A Single Cop Or EMT Seemed To Be In A Hurry ]

[ Why? ]
[ The Whole Crowd Watched George Floyd Die!! ]

[ Chauvin Only Got Up When The Guerney Was Brought There ]
[ Floyd Was Totally Limp When He Was Lifted Up ]
[ But NO Cops Or EMT’s Showed That They Cared ]

[ Not One Little Bit ]
[ That Seems Like That Is Some Seriously Calloused Shit! ]

[ When They Loaded Floyd On The Gurney, Not One EMT Checked For Any Sign Of Life ]
[ Why Not? ]
[ That Was Not Right ]

[ I Bet Every EMT Named Bill, Bob Or Mike ]
[ Has Had Alot Of Experience On Medical Calls ]
[ & They Know What A Dead Body Looks Like ]

[ They Loaded Floyd In The Truck & Stayed Parked With No Lights Going or Sirens Blaring ]
[ I Really Felt For George Floyd ]
[ While The Crowd Was Yelling & Staring ]
[ All Those EMT’s & Cops Showed America That They Were Not Very Worried Or Caring ]

[ I Can Slightly Understand The Black People’s Uproar ]
[ This Police Murder ]
[ Rocked Them To Their Core ]
[ I Really Fear That If Chauvin Is Not Found Guilty & Put Away Forever ]
[ City Police Departments Have Not The Slightest Idea What Some Black People Have In Store ]
[ The Riots & Fires Will Be Way Worse ]
[ & There Will Be So So Many More People Hurt!! ]

[ It Will Be Very Very Bad ]
[ Because Every Black Person Will Be So Many Levels Up, From Just Being Mad ]

[ They Will Not Want To Talk This Out! ]
[ They Will Do So Much More Than March & Shout! ]
[ Huge Fires? Deaths? Shootings? Property Damage? Shooting @ The Police? A Race War? ]
[ There Is Not Even The Tiniest, Slightest Bit Of Doubt ]

~ The End ~

[ Auhea kuʻu hoaaloha ]
[ Ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei wau e pono ai e lawe i kēia moʻolelo
     i kahi hopena ]

[ Mahalo no ka hoʻoloheʻana i kaʻu mau moʻolelo ]
[ No laila,ʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻo ia ka mea ]
