Four Men Involved In A Fight

It was reported on the news,

four men involved in a fight.

Mobile phone footage provided,

recording this horrific sight.

 

A white man killed a black man

A black man killed a white man

A white man saved a black man

A black man saved a white man

 

A passer by reported the news,

of this incident the same day.

Four men involved in a fight,

it was written down this way.

 

A man in a green cap killed a man in a blue cap

A man in a yellow cap killed a man in a red cap

A man in a green cap saved a man in a blue cap

A man in a yellow cap saved a man in a red cap

 

It was reported on the news,

but no film crew at the scene.

Four men involved in a fight,

it was never shown on the screen.

Interesting. The media define people by the colour of their skin when it suits them.
