The main theme of the poem was the criticism against the Executive order that was unfairly targeting the Japanese Americans in the detention camp. The poem was about a girl who was forcibly taken to the detention camp at the age of fourteen one because of her race of being Japanese. In the camp, she was repeatedly reciting that she haven’t attacked Pearl Harbor and why she was being held in the camp. During the era, the Japanese Americans were facing ignorance, segregation, and stereotype only because they belonged to the race of Japanese.  They were seen as they were the ones who bombed Pearl Harbor.
