A lot of Spanish in the USA
Colorado, Florida, burritos
Tecumseh in Detroit
My parents in Toledo

Detroit, of course, is French
As is New Orleans
Chicago in the winter
And I read Things Not Seen

John Brown raided Harper's Ferry
Nat Turner led a slave revolt
I spend some time in Baltimore
Saw the Ravens not the Colts

Trappist 1 discovered
Water? Alien life?
Silver Spring, Maryland
Thai wedding, my half Thai wife

The fight is on for dear Taiwan
Please wisdom in the strife
I taught the students about Islam
Taipei 101 at night

                  Be alright!
