don't claim Saviour

status me this

if on a Monday in October

a being of an inconsequential race and place

came up with a different idea

one he didn't think much about

one he didn't perfect

but one that stayed with him

in that way that ideas stay

and he recorded it

aptly, properly, virally, naturally

 it was shared

and he left his name there

it was his idea

and many agreed

and many took it and added to it

and it was built up

and built on

and built in

and then it was something new

a new idea, a concept 

shaped

and his name was still there

inscribed in the cards, and windows

and you looked in 

and you were sucked in 

and you looked around 

and found it to be disagreeable

follow me now

there is a door behind you

there are doors all around you

there are windows on the first floor

there is an escape route

this idea is a stop, not a permanence

you scream
you yell
you stomp
you demand to see the man with the name
and you want everyone
the workers
the builders
the adders
the agreers
to get out, to move out, to tear it down

my question is, why do you not leave?

why do you stay to picket

why stay and protest?

why not move out

and move on

and move into a place of your own

or some other place

it's not in your way
it doesn't affect you

but still you choose to be war.
