civilized.

we've come to kill.
we've come to take.
we've come not to understand,
but to teach.

i awoke to a world not my own.
shifted, tilted, gone.
they wanted to trade
foreign goods,
we need nothing.

feel the moss on my feet.
a leaf above giving way to the wind. connected.
i've risen to protect.
i've come to observe.
i'll be here till the trees cease to flex.
i am human,
but i am not civilized.
