The American Wall

The American Wall I came up on this great big wall. Tall as two houses on top of each other. So big you can't see over it. I asked a man if he knew who built such a wall. He said an american president. For what reason I asked. He said to keep illegal people from going on to taking job. Food and homes. He also said that it keeps out people that don't like america. He said I came here the legal way and i love america. But this wall is not going stop them.
