Somebody’s Child

Somebody’s child

Driven out by

Somebody’s will

Kept out of

Somebody’s land

Washed up on

Somebody’s shore

Within the boundary of

Somebody’s lines.

Robbed sleep off

Humanity’s eyes.

A stricken world

Burns at the stake

Driven to madness

By a single thought.

Who let Somebody

Draw those lines?

How many limp ragdolls

Will it take,

Before Somebody

Removes those lines?
