For millennia, now,
you have loved things more than humans
You own vehicles, houses, fields and forests
weapons and tools
that belong to you
and which you use
to maintain your power.
Your honor is placed above mine
You love yourself more than me
You have torn up
mother earth
to tear out her treasures
bodies enslaved
even my own
which you are using
with your tools and weapons
For millennia
you decided if life or death
In the name of God
you subjugated the earth
And I have permitted this
Today, I say thank you
– but just once
Enough property and power
Have been created
And now we share!
No, I am not so stupid
as not to take away your weapons
