Coro-Man-Bind-Us

 

You are a global evangelist

veiled in dread to tell human

that he is an inhuman human

Coro-man-bind-us

Many a thing shatter us but

as you hung on the stake to say

‘Brother, behold your brother’

we petition, let your blood

epoxy humans in solidarity

And restore sanity to humanity
