What We Have Become

Take a bite

Let the energy

Of the sweet

Yet bitter

Fruits

Flow through

And it will sing you

Songs of courage

And immerse you

In bewilderment

At the people we

Have become

Over time.

Take the time

Drink the water

Slowly

Yet quickly

And know what

It tastes like

And it will tell you

Tales of equality

And immerse you

In bewilderment

At the people we

Have become

Over time.
