Aphrodite appear

We are the weak ones

The ones that bring fourth anew

The ones that part the clouds and tell the storms to stop.

We are the poor and hurt

we are the ones harmed, the ones to be moved-as if we aren't mountains ourselves.

We are a resource, to be bartered over and something to shed blood over.

But they won't fight for us

But they will pass us along like cheap, stolen, rum.

They break us when we burn their throats, but didn't they know we would fight back?

We are, although broken down, dirty and scared, unsure of home because we've never had a place we could call home

We are the bringers of light

And we are no more weak than they are
