Scratched marks, carve carve carve away
don't need to escape but need to
whittle down the walls, grind them down to their bones
crumble them with the weight of our words;
(Profound/inane) chisel deep carve deep for your mothers
for your mothers your brothers your fathers your you's
Let it not stand enshrined: we will not let this go by
carve deep 'til it cannot stand straight --
We'll stand straight.
