What Do You See? by Mariam Ouedraogo

Look around you.
What do you see?
A home. A TV full of stories.

Death. What is death?
Momma will I die?
I don’t want to die momma.

I want to live forever.
I want to save the world.

Momma why is the Police on that man’s neck?
Why is he screaming?
Momma… The man is screaming for his momma.

Where is his momma?

Momma look at all of these people marching.
It’s so sunny out.
Momma I want to go march with them.
