Today President trump signed and Executive Order to keep children with their parents, when being detained for coming across the boarder illegally. With thousands attempting to cross the into the United States at risk of jail, or peril, the welcoming arms of Lady Liberty and the words of Emma Lazarus become blurred. Everyone has an opinion, but few have a workable solution. What would you do?
Back Door Entry
“Give me your tired // your poor
Your huddled masses yearning to be free…”
Emma Lazarus wrote of a nation of immigrants
Coming by the boat load to America…
Seeking freedom and a chance for a new life
Leaving all behind // never looking back.
Lady Liberty still stands in New York Harbor
The flow has never stopped
The welcoming words // still the same
What has changed?
