Passage by Nadine Sellers


    we came - they cared - new eyes
    we spoke - they ignored - new tongues
    we walked - they rode - new ground
    we cooked - they tasted - old ways


    immovable mountains - fake skies
    we dressed - they stared - strange ways
    we payed hommage - they prayed - odd gods
    we hummed - they sang - new anthems
    we held out - they held fast - old strangers
    unpronounceable places - real cries
