imageTonight I lifted glass to lips and hands to pray for my peopleOver empty bottles and solidarity circles we spoke of youFergusonWe lament for youWe grieve for your streets stained crimson and your courts colored unjustInjustice should not standBut tonight it didAs it seems to do for our peopleYou are not aloneYou are not abandonedWe hold you in our heartsFor you are beloved
