O Canada

O Canada

I am so sorry for what is going on

I apologize for a lot of people's actions

to specify, their stupid actions

 

O Canada

Vermont sends its condolences

we are trying hard to make our voices heard above the din

we want you to be separate from the US, too

we can hear each other, but others are deaf to our cries

 

O Canada

do not change

try to fight it

don't let the virus take over

keep sneezing

it'll end eventually

 

O Canada

this fight is not fair

this war is not considered

I give you courage for these hopefully only four years

 

O Canada

I'm so sincerely sorry

this mess needs to be cleaned up

the pom poms are littered everywhere

there are tiny pieces of cardstock under everything

the glitter glue is next to go

 

O Canada

keep pushing

keep fighting

keep defending yourself

help will be on the way soon

    never the main character

    never given a chance to be the main focus

    if at least for an hour

  • How did I get here

    Who have I been

    what kind of a friend am I

    who do I really want to be

    what do I want

    why am I like this

    who could I have been

    where could I have gone

    have known
