This is the public, right?
Than why shall I be set aside.
This is wrong, we will fight!

We just want to eat.
We all need to care.
So here is where we’ll sit,
Until we’re treated fair.

We come in peace.
No need for weapons.
Just the words to speak,
And move in the right direction.

Please just listen.
Please hear our words.
We’re treated as ricin,
When all we want is to be heard.
