Sparkling, empty blue sea
sails break the distant horizon
first one
then two
finally three ships making way
toward unsuspecting shell-gatherers
brown-skinned and naked on
the hot Caribbean sand
Had they known
they could have feigned friendship
Then slaughtered them all in the night
Burned the great ships and
been done with it.
At least for a while
We all have to deal with it
Some more often than others
No matter how well I do
It doesn’t matter how hard I try
There will always be someone
Most likely someone close to you
Saying that this is wrong
Or that is wrong
Eventually, you just give in
You'll do it their way
Not because they are right
“They rarely are.”
Rather, just to shut them up
