And when I take this path
I want to be ever so much careful.
To break no twig;
To lift no stones;
To take nothing;
And eat nothing
That will change me.
To remember that I come unasked
And unwelcome.
That you are a foreign country
And stand among my enemies.
That before your staring eyes
I stand naked;
Unloved.
That if I bring no harm,
I may leave unharmed;
But that if you take my hand,
I will be done.
