What does it mean to be marginalized
illegal, homeless, a blight on the landscape?
What does it mean when we risk polluting
our water and food source for the economy?
What does it mean to destroy the air
we need to breathe?
What will our future be if we are willing
to sacrifice our home for quick solutions?
What if this planet is ruled by extortionists
who silenced these questions
so that our taxes can pay even more tomorrow
and the next day until there is nothing left
but solid rock glowing in a distant universe?
What does it mean when we are offended
by people who have nowhere to wash
yet welcome those who hold all life as ransom
for the glory of their personal ego?
