day FIVE HUNDRED and THIRTEEN

dangerous Myan woman
small as a child
illegal for entering

my country
fleeing thugs from
her country

crying in court
in her orange
jumpsuit

missing her baby
stolen from her
pleading forgiveness

for loving her child
for fearing death
for believing

my country
is better
than hers

--Thomas R. Thomas
