  • they came from the earth across the waters

    they came from the earth across the waters;
    they were you; they were me;
    some were adventurers looking for
    wealth and glory, which are really the same;
    some were running from affliction
    by state, religion, or both.
    they came to the land of plenty
    on birds with many
    white wings upon the water;
    they possessed magic wands|
    that spouted killing fire;
    they were strange and much feared invaders|
    to those who lived this land.

    they are us; we are they;
    we’ve yet to learn
    to not be afraid
    of folks unlike us
    who come from a different place;
    so, we take our fear and turn it to hate,
    a most miserable state of being
    for all in the human race.
    do you think any living this land
    or from the earth across the waters
    considered their fear of the unknown
    to numb and erase the budding hate?

    Likely there were a few who shunned
    the fear and budding hate
    but were outliers
    while the blustering cowards
    moved the crowd with fear and hate
    who adopted those who ruled the day
    when they came from across the waters

    there is no reliance on history here,
    but i would like to see
    birds with many white wings upon the water
    just one time.
