All of man gathered and decided

At the dawn of each new day,

All will chant into the sky, 

We are humans

We are humans

We are humans

we are humans. . .

For years, these words were said.

But upon each utterance,

The sacredness of the words 

Was washed away, silenced, 

Like a power generator

Illuminating a home on a stormy evening 

Somewhere, 

Its running note of power

Drowned in the ears of the sheltered,

Lost into the frames, shutters, and fabrics,

By familiarity, silenced.
