Day 319: colonization

the language doesnt fit
we cut our tongues
mold them like sons
we try to learn how to forget
they say its better
easier
fold over our palms
into prayers to a god who never learned our names
while forgetting the millions who gave us their own
the are the ways we are taught to kill ourselves
tears our own husk from our hearts
anyways who says colonization end anywhere
before the planet is destroyed
never
opened
their
eyes
