once again we are reminded
we are under notice
this is history's longest death threat
and we spend another day
of explaining the things
we have to do to survive
and we have to explain you
and we have to justify us
and we have to say sorry
when you don't understand
and you feel uncomfortable
and you feel under attack
and then you get on with living
and we don our masks
apply our make-up
adjust our chains

she moves upwards
she deflects
and back it comes
again and again
it will not stop
someone has to win
but she does not see why it has to be a competition
she moves downwards
it is reflected back
it is constantly rejected

<!--
why are you speaking now?
how can you talk about this now when
as if we haven't dealt with this before
try being more sensible about it
shut up!
why now?
really?
or maybe it's because of your actions
not listening to this
give it a rest

Trying to communicate--however loudly--is not militancy.
We speak about what is happening to us, to others on the street; you talk of our aggression towards your sensibilities.
I wonder if you would prefer physical force.
I talk about personal history, and I am told to calm down.
I will never shoot you with a gun.
