Beyond Terra - We The Land

We the Land

We were taught that land

is what’s beneath our feet. We are taught we were created

from the dust of the ground. We were never taught

that we are Land in Motion,

and we bare its’ Title.

We stand on Land

We sale Land

We own Land
We fight over Land
We move Land
We build on Land
We die on Land
We are buried in Land

What are we, any place …

at any time?

We are Land

Wherever we go

we take our Land

If one flees to another part of the earth

It is only a new spot to wit, he stands

If we have children,

we extend our Land

we extend our Titles

If one gives up his Lands and his titles

he is no longer Lord of the Land

Thus his lands will no longer

bear his Name nor Title.
It is here where my story begins.
