call


these are my people
call the fire dancers
the dreamers
call the lunatics and the poets

these are my people
born of a flaming pillar
the sleepers
born of a dream and a whisper

these are my people
a vagabond tribe
the windblown (let the desert be our home)
a place of freaks and outcasts

these are my people
call the painters
the forgotten
call the tired and hungry

call my People.

i love this poetry. save these words and if you ever found an art institute or a studio, put these words on a pillar everyone has to walk past to enter.
