I feel the collective ache
where the Earth gave birth to us all
A wound that wants us back
to douse the fires of Alexandria
Why did we unlearn
all the things we once knew?
And now we are remembering,
one by one, so it might take a while
Take heed as time runs out
on the oppressor - it's his most dangerous hour
To kill a million things is no great feat
before the children who are watching
