no one owns this land bloodshed and atrocity lord tyrants and battlements the Vikings seafaring Erik the Red with his sons Leif and Thorvald, continuing the journey Columbus, Champlain, Cartier... Jacques Cartier looking for China found ‘Kanata’ and they now call Canada captived Donnacona and his clan from Stadacona the mariners, cartographers no one owns this land the slavery and civil war of Catholicism and Protestants the ‘Black Death’ from bubonic plague the man’s bones from the rat’s alley below the ground with sunken skeletons who fought with swords and knives and a broken arrow trying to dug up their way to the bridges and skyscrapers that buried them deep with the poison of ideology that says ‘you are not welcome’ the silent voices screams ‘this is our land, this is our land... this is not our land and there shall be no peace.’
