"immigrants"
by pat mora

wrap their babies in the american flag,
feed them mashed hot dogs and apple pie,
name them bill and daisy,
buy them blonde dolls that blink blue
eyes or a football and tiny cleats
before the baby can even walk,
speak to them in thick english,
hallo, babee, hallo,
whisper in spanish or polish
when the babies sleep, whisper
in a dark parent bed, that dark
parent fear, "will they like
our boy, our girl, our fine american
boy, our fine american girl? "
