Just Do It, Colin

Thank you Nike For supporting Colin Not crazy and devious Palin Thank for holding the mighty mic Of freedom of expression For Colin Kaepernick, the fighter The quarterback, the football player Who has a message, a mission To let the world know that we all matter We need to be treated fairly and justly It's not about the flags, it's about justice Human rights and the right to live in peace Where there is no justice Obviously, the is no peace Just do it! And fight for our liberty Our freedom of speech and dignity Just do it! Thank you Nike Thank you for the mike We will not burn our sneakers Because we're smart We will buy more sneakers For our brothers and sisters Because we're smart Nike's sneakers last forever We don't burn; we're smarter We are extremely strong and fit Just do it, Nike. Just do it. Copyright © September 2018, Hébert Logerie, All rights reserved Hébert Logerie is the author of several books of poetry.
