artists on the run
we are everyday people
well known on the streets
beloved but misunderstood
working for the greater good
and transitioning day by day
authorities keep us running
from one place to the next
from city to state to country
carving calligraphy inside caves
pasting portraits of unsung
heroes on border walls
we are everyday people
telling your untold stories
stories of scarcity and neglect
praying the world one day
wakes up and takes notice
june two thousand eighteen
