Poems about Immigration
Oh that “America” starts with “A”
A sign of starting anew
Perhaps that’s why each new immigrant
I am a child of the Americas,
A fusion of the rich culture of Italy
Defining me only begins with my heritage
The Wet feels like dying,
The Wet is wet from crying,
The Wet bulk loading the undocumented
Five floors, a cherry tree, and my room on top.
I ran down the stairs.
I kissed the empty hall goodbye.
