Havok

They call me Ava
I disagree
I say I’m Kovah
But they don’t know me
They say I’m too eccentric
And I expect too much again
They say changing is chaotic
And I’ll get no respect from them
I think they’re being silly
But if they want to call me names;
“Don’t call me Ava
Call me havoc with a ‘k’
I am Kovah
And I am they”
I say the words and in the air they hang
Undisturbed and untouched
By the agents of change
