To the Masterminds of Paranoid Nationalism

I say, we say:

"We," the Other people

We, the migrants, exiles, nomads & wetbacks

In permanent process of voluntary deportation

We, the transient orphans of dying nation-states

la otra America; l'autre Europe y anexas

We, the citizens of the outer limits and crevasses

of "Western civilization"

We, who have no government;

no flag or national anthem

We, fingerprinted, imprisoned, under surveillance

We, evicted from your gardens & beaches

We, interracial lovers,

children of interracial lovers, ad infinitum

We, who defy your fraudulent polls & statistics

We, in constant flux,

from Patagonia to Alaska,

from Juarez to Ramalia,

We millions abound,

We continue to talk back...continue, continue
