3 elegant women on
the boat painted by Monet;
The impressionism to
the natural philosophy
The inaccessible cosmos is always
a chaotic phenomenon
The exhausts and
the caprice; ignores
national boundaries
The militarized border
The imperial consciousness
The plethora and
the starvation; give us
a green card
The underprivileged and
the gorgeous;
The building of
a higher wall, without consent, right before us
The helpless and
the hurtful;
The beauty and
the beast; usually they don’t dance together
The photography and
the modernist art (I mix them randomly)
The son and
the contaminated environment; going to his father’s
The clean and
the dirty; in that dirty water
The deported and
the tourist;
gaps between two worlds
The sorrows and
the happily ignorant;
they never laugh together
The U.S. citizen and
the alien; but not perceived as
fallen angels
The criminal and
the respectable;
one will drown in agony
The brown and
the white; pasted into this
collage of watercolor.
The undocumented immigrants crossing
the river.
