A Resolution

Strange
That so many strangers are here
This is a sweet noise with forked tongue
Change
Is not a critical mass of diverse dreams
And I do not know you
Your warm fuzzy smile dripping milk cream
Over the chocolate of my face
Before we came
I had significance in the knowledge of my identity
I had certainty
In what things are wrong and what things were right
And you were not the circle with me
I am used to walking in crowds with protected pockets
I love everyone but no longer trust strangers
And we need to be reintroduced
So you may know I am not just your victim
I am the victim of all your friends
Flocking to the frenzy of the world peace
I am the subsidy of your prosperity
Whether it be climatic change
Or world peace
And I am not use to strangers speaking for my good
There is no other-centered love among nations
Your survival exterminates me if allowed
If I am silent
If I am still while you lead your empire to the crown
I am here and shall not stand down
Until the agenda I wrote with my brothers blood
Is on the table before your eyes growing wide
