Indigenous

Indigenous

I belong on this land.
N ative born, it is all I know.
D isplacement brought much sorrow.

I ran away, hidden away in the tall grass.
G enocide can only strip away so much DNA.
E nding the lives of so many, for what cause?
N ever forget the true agriculturists of this land
O ppression stripped the human rights of my ancestors
U nity was never an option.
S ubjagation is never the answer.
