I Am Parasite Poem by katherine ochoa

I Am Parasite

Rating: 3.0


I am what Hitler called the Jews
I am what rich whites called their slaves
I am what the wealthy calls the homeless
I am what Europeans called Native Americans
But I am alive on a planet people wage war to claim
And they deny me my own existence
But I am not killed so easily
The world depends on parasites
Not on hatred
