People come to it for a better life.
Each immigrant comes with a family.
A husband settles in it with his wife.

with a stick in the dirt on the border
between cage and patrolman earth.

I listen as the teacher talks
I read what the teacher talks
I read

She couldn’t be there for me.
The children were sad,
My heart was hurting.
What is happening to our country?
A false image of justice, freedom, and democracy
How can we be any better than Russia, China, or even slavery?
Racism, Hatred, manipulation
It's all still there
