For want of a Father

For George Floyd, based on this description of his life
For want of a father, security is lost,
For want of security, victimhood is assured,
For the sense of being a victim, loyalty to the law is lost,
For want of loyalty to the law, the crime is commuted,
For want of justice, following police orders is lost,
For want of following police orders, a life is lost,
For want of a life, the protest for justice began,
For want of justice, the riot began,
For want of a riot, the looting began,
For want of the looting, an zone was created,
For want of the zone, a private army was created,
For the private army, citizens were beaten.
All for want of a father.
