Immigrant Diaries (3): Go Home

They say;
"go back to where you came from"

as we became bent

from carrying home

on our backs.

you think we want to be here?
you think we want to break the ocean
to hear you say our names?

noor sounds like darkness
from your mouth.
you ask if
i burn in the sun
you tell me slavery
was not such a "big deal"
do you still think
we want
to be
here?
