Blood as Red as Yours
Child thinks he can ride a two-wheeler
He’s wrong
Scraped legs and elbows
Expectant mother finds
Spotting on her underwear
Fears the worst
Captain tells his men “wait here”
Investigates suspicious vehicle
Turns out to be a car bomb
Worker reaches inside a conveyor belt to clear a jam
Forgetting to turn the machine off first
Machine strips his fingers to the bone
Black man with hand in pocket
I have a gun
Attempts robbery
Shot by white off-duty policeman
No weapon found on deceased
We hurt differently
But we all bleed the same
