YOUR CHILD IS WEEPING

God,  there were thousands
of them
As she toured in her vehicle
she saw the walled poor
and managed a tear
which she stored in a vile
as proof of her banquet
which they,  the others
in her path-
transformed and lively
like children in the country,
assailed with songs
and mist which ended
neither poverty
nor American lives.
