Oh beautiful for denim skies,
the oceans green with envy.
The West so near.
The East so far.
Mexico and Canada
come close but no cigar.
They can’t forget the Indian
or England.
America, your enormity,
your typical nonconformity.
The union of separatists
formed your independence.
America, your exiled immigration.
Your truth self evident:
United States of
uncontrolled experiment
to see
if we
can ever
live together.
