This is not about me
It's about you.
It's for you.
This is for the woman working the late night shift at CVS.
This is for children living in starvation
This is for my mother
This is for your mother.
This is about humanity and its divine reception
in 40 years.
This is about everything
and consequently nothing.
This is about awareness and education
v o i c e s you hear in your sleep
Those were never dreams
Those were friends of the past present and future
You may never meet.
They were my voice
they were the voices of the children,
hungry and dying.
They were voices for the world
Which means they said everything
you would ever need to know about humanity.
And consequently, nothing.
