describe for me the instance in which
you knew you were human:
the day you learned what hate
does to a man, what love does
in return.
the day you learned that life
is not equal, that warriors could
turn the tides.
the day you bled, shed tears
hot and quick, the bandages that
didn’t quite work.
the day you walked out and
were lost, the stranger that pointed
you home.
describe for me the instance in which
you forget what it means to be human.
