A Mexican Child Speaks
Am I Mexican?
Where is my father?
my mother, where
are they?
Am I immigrant?
but, where is my mother,
father, sister?
where is home?
where am I?
where are they?
who are they?
my crying is not listened to
I crossed the borders
because they brought me here
where are they?
who have pushed me into
this dark, depressing room?
Where is my country?
What is my country?
Where is my father?
