It cannot be so
you say
simple hands
cannot change
the fate of humanity.
I say
Humanity is
a boundless comma
absorbing heart
tranceeding
death and generations
and centuries
absorbing bullets
and stitches
and teargas
enduring humiliation
and illegal abortions
and thankless jobs
I say to you
the heart of Humanity
has not
and will not
be broken
And let us raise ourselves
like lanterns
with the millions of others
with the mad
and the forgotten
and the strong of heart
to shine.
