Which everybody else?



Why wont you be like everybody else?

Which everybody else would you like for me to be?
They, them, he, she, we?
The ones from the child genital mutilation category?
Or those with tunnel vision to their tv?
Maybe those who believe science blindly?
Or the ones giving away our country?
Or the tolerance brigade who love everybody,
Once they dont look like me?
Perhaps you want me to watch it all unquestioningly?

But these are things il never be,
So maybe its best you all leave me.

About this poem

The native irish population has dropped from over 90% to 40% in Dublin in 20 years. And now theyv opened our borders to further decrease us out of existence. This is a genocide.
