Immigrants come to America
looking to live out stereotypes
Americans for generations
have been trying to overcome;

Lesbians would have taken over
long ago if little immigrant girls
didn't wear pig-tails & frilly pink
dresses; intellectuals would rule
if older immigrants read Sontag;

I never hear an immigrant talk
about Nietzsche, Kierkegaard,
Plato or Kant; I'm lead to believe
there is no Spanish Enlightenment;
no Muslim or African Renaissance

but America being a corporate state
only wants more & more customers
& once u've spent every dime they
toss u away like a greasy wrapper
& open the gates to more customers

I'm not an immigrant & truth be told
I don't give a **** about ur relatives
