Slavery
May 24, 2017
The whips cracking against skin
Slicing through like a hot knife through butter
Men screaming in the air
Echoing like thunder
The ones who dont work hang from trees
Swaying like leaves in the summer wind
Sweating all day in the hot sun
Without the comfort of a cold drink
Taken away from our families
Without a second glance or word
And beaten into our new life
Like a caged wild animal
