The European speak of peace as though they are saints.
angels, sent by God to deliver us from ourselves.
They taught us their language.
No, forced it upon us.
And claimed that their language was blessed by the divine.
They showed us their way.
No, they impose upon us their way as though we didn't have our own way.
They created words like Terrorist, Villians, Barbarian.
Words used to demonized us,
They gaslight us as they still from underneath our feet out resources to make themselves richer.
Reshaped a reality and caused us to wonder if truly our pain, sufferness worth the ounce they feel.
we are the monsters in their stories.
For the evil is painted in black
and good is painted in white.
We are the monster in their stories
yet in reality, it is they who haunt us
