The Human Eclipse
Sympatheticly I witness immigrants arrive
Infiltrating borders
Trying to stay alive
They become illegal marauders
Worldwide governments are experiencing this situation
Are concerned about their own population
Struggling to find a humane solution
Extradite with deportation
In the meantime destitute still migrate
Fleeing from hunger and war
For some it's too late
They never make it ashore
About this poem
Is there a New Year resolution to resolve this atrocity.
