What About Us?

Dancing in the stars of the 
Fake smiling frivolous crowds, snapping 
Their dead-toned cameras at your 
Dead-toned face. Showing their 
Support in you, making a name out 
Of your life that they once judged. 
This is their control. This is how 
They make sure that what we should 
Know is never known. 
As you lay there, dormant 6 feet under, 
People praising your name in honor, 
There are those million un-heard of 
Names, their lives being taken in vain
By the B-52 bomber raids. 
Let your name & your life be honored, 
But how about those that are never 
Known? Where are their thousand standing
Celebrities singing & praying for them? 
Where is their condolence letter from 
Mr. Obama? What about them? 
What about us?
