Columbus Day

Breaking stones 
over your head. 
Columbus, 
your statue 
stands tall 
and strong. 

Pigeon shit, 
dry in your eye. 
Columbus, 
you're no 
visionary 
to them. 

The pigeons 
can't read and can't 
know how much 
pain and 
suffering 
you caused. 

Columbus, in 
the end you died 
a horrible 
death I hear. 
Was it all 
worth it?
