Why?

Why do you hate us? Perhaps it’s the way we become one with the sun.The way Spanish dances on our tongues,a language not native to your blood. Our skin embellished with invisible scars.Roadmaps our ancestors left us to conqueryour vile hearts. Is it not enough that you’ve deemed us theunwanted guest of our homes?You ban us from the soil wherewe've planted seeds,then harvest the fruitand determine whose worthy of eating. You feed off our pain and make a mockeryof our plights. Steal our children, like a thief In the night.Break up families, like we break bread. A force of evil so grotesqueThat demon's themselveslook at you with admiration. You were never deserving.My ancestors were too kind.The day you got off that shipThe devil laughed in delight.
