The Many

There may be one of me, but

The parents are many—and we want our children to be fed, housed, safe, educated, and healthy

There may be one of me, but

The spouses and partners are many—and we want our collective income to be sufficient to support a comfortable life. We are done with worrying whether the next time our spouses and partners leave the house will be the last time because of a militarized police force that targets them.

There may be one of me, but

The daughters are many—and we want our parents lives to be dignified and healthy. We want our parents not to have to work so hard anymore.

There may be one of me, but

The drama queens—and we are ready for all the drama of creating a new world order rooted in humanity.

There may be one of me, but

The proprietors of peace and unity are many —and we will win the war for this world.

There may be one of me, but

The people are many. The people are many. The people are many.

Many more than the few.
