Kin

Seven or so men with guns
In military outfits except one
Round us up
Looking for pension for our visit
To La Fleuve

A man grabs a bus in motion like
He'd grab his oldest friend around the arm
I suppose others grab hold with their faith
To the bus that says
‘If your god is dead, try mine’

Seen in the home that I’d never known

A kid digs out a piece of the road
To resell on the street
Article 15

The students are so nice
And the moment we leave
A protester diеs

What put the power in your leadеr's hands
But uranium taken from my homeland
My homeland that I’d never known
