Borders
Secure our borders!
Good fences make good neighbors.
Make it clean and strong
Our earth is colored in patches
Of the countries, its entities
Document every plant, animal, and person
Measure all the air, water, and breathing
Make everything invisible, visual
Experience life, cleanly divisible
Since we can't respect differences
We must make great walls
To decorate with peace doves
And free-for-alls;
Since we can't understand each other’s needs
We must enforce our language
In the name of collaboration
And reason;
Since we can't stop fighting each other
We must create better weapons
To stop the others from
Making more;
Since we can't cure our diseases
We must name name each one
And come up with new experiments
Procedures and drugs;
Since we can't educate our people
Who have these answers already
Let's vote against spending money
To teach them;
Secure our borders!
Good fences make good neighbors
