You never see the sun little girl
You are stiching your fingers into the fabrics of the night
Like the matchmakers and the clock girls
How can we not care enough for other peoples people
Why do we think
Just because there are different names and sounds and customs
That they are not our people
Everyone who has ever lived are a fleshed feeling human like we
No matter where from, they will always be our people
So when you see our people fleeing
Our people being bombed
Our people labouring and children starving and working or dying or children* covered in blood and dust from collapsed bulidings
Or when your coworker tells you her whole family is dead
Dont you dare say
"This is not our people"
I dont care who you are or where you are from
A dead child is a dead child
And a murdered people are a murdered people
These are children
So they will always be our children
These are people
So they will always be our people
