A Border Meditation
If, as a national “body” of people,
We are unwilling to protect ourselves
From the infection that infuses us
By the invasion of immigrants,
We will, indeed, deserve the influx:
The natural consequence of negligence.
But, of course, even dereliction
Can be morphed into national benefit!
Are we not short on workers to fill
The demands of an economy which supposes
A growth in the population of consumers?
Indeed, that which is apparent buffoonery
May, indeed, be the work of a providential God
Looking out for the national welfare!
So, the moral of the story is to press on,
Advocating the preservation of citizenship
And the sustaining of national security,
But ready for and open to those divine moves
Where Providence comes in and makes a change
Which at first is abhorrent, yes, even above strange.
So, be not too disturbed when the boarders are overrun.
In the end in may be turned to a time of great fun
As those new citizens zealously go to work
And, paying those taxes, vote as good Republicans,
Pursuing the good and bringing us a needed revival.
