FAR
Away, distant
Outlying, seeing, reaching, 
Countries, foreigners, timely, relatives 
Appearing, landing, coming
Close, handy
NEAR

The old cave was inhabited
But no one knows who
They never knew that the inhabitants
Were foreigners different from you

They could have looked different
What they have made was a single dent...

Che cosa strangieri (what do you want foreigners?)

What you want of me is to be your slave.

A mind of knowledge works for the team and not for a tyrant.

So no I say & addio (goodbye forever)...

The Chinese are not physically taller than any foreigners
But their statures are mystically long
The Foreigners link their hearts to mouths using steel pipes
While the Chinese do so by fitting coil springs on...

what did I say
they never heard
not foreigners
if who knows me

that is not bad
they said I didn't say

what did I do
they never see
not blind
they irrelevant from me

that is not bad
they said nothing...

As seeds, of a cold windswept hand
Now rooted in your land
What, growing up as wildflowers
Were, too, called foreigners.

Displaced themselves, are not these
For road-blown refugees
Not worth that time-budding chance
Cultured landscapes enhance?...

a little argument in Portugal

at the pharmacy
a man tried to get in front of me
I would have none of it
We had words.
But something he said 
Stuck in my mind;
We don´t like you (foreigners) 
We only tolerate you.
The people at the pharmacy
Fell silent.
I had the sense they agreed with him....

Where there is fog
That's where I'm from
Where Summer is not hot
Where it's expensive to live in
San Francisco
Where the famous singers left their heart
Where the famous bridge is from the Golden Gate

Where happiness is never ends
The tourist spot for foreigners
San Francisco
Oh how I love thee...

All Broken, Cracked, Dead, 
Everything Frail. Gory Hell I 
Just Keep Landlocked Making 
No Optimism. Preachers Quote 
Relentlessly Suspending Time 
Underground. Villains With 
Xenophobe Yearning Zen.  


Xenophobe- one who fears, 
mistrusts, and dislikes 
foreigners or what is strange or 
foreign....

Xenophobia in Trump’s America

Black and brown foreigners, believes our blond superman,
Are taking our jobs, a racist approach, his Muslin ban
And support for building this xenophobic wall,
Have cost America Millions, let it fall,
Sad for a president to have more foe than fan!

My third limerick in my trilogy...

T&T Carnival that is Soca Bacchanal
Blue skies half-naked people
Steel pan lots of bands, foreigners everywhere  
Crowded street
Sweet melodies
Friendly people
Loud voices
Cheerful laughter
Calm winds
Cool breeze
Watchful eyes
Bright sun
Rainbow colours
Dancing children
Different cultures that is what we call 
T&T Carnival...

They look like us, 
On the outside,
Only just younger.

They walk upright,
Can speak English;
No, not foreigners.

We nourish them,
Provide for them;
Help Them grow stronger.

They sprout gadgets,
To interface
One with another.

Prefer online
To face to face.
Virtual lover?

Will they survive,
Even evolve,
To become human

On a little desk   in a dusty room
I sat and dreamed things strange
flying as birds did around school
talking as parrots with foreigners
capturing images with cakes and bread
eating worms cooked, served in plates
talking using cockroaches tied to wires
tying my neck with gold- colored ropes
working in anthills built with glasses
I think I saw it while in Primary School...

Let me sing a foreign song
To the hears of my foreign friend
Let me dance with foreign moves
To the beat of my foreign art

She said she believed a foreign friend
That came far from a foreign land
She speaks calm to the foreign quest
And two foreigners look like a regular

Sing to me and hear a foreign melody
Save me from been a toreador
Fighting for love in a strange land
Call me my name and sing my pedigree...

Samuel Wamuel, Pirate Cat with a Yo Ho Ho Ho
Steered his ship through the island of Want a Go Go
With salty western winds on his lip, and his heart full of woe
He traveled the Seven Seas as some of us foreigners know.

Other pirate ships would spot us and yell “oh, no! No!”
Samuel Wamuel’s reputation was not a bit slow.
He’s not all that bad said his child, name of Chloe.
Oh, yes, he is said his brother, a bad boy named Joe....

Many palace and temple
walls carry my images;
My subjects chant my name,
whenever I am at their sight
or not; Foreigners spread
my name and status throughout
the world

After thousands of wheat
harvests, I wonder whether
my images on palace and temple
walls will still be seen, to boast
memories of my royal status;
I wonder whether this land of Isis,
will still be chanting my name;
I wonder whether the sands of time,
will have buried my legacy or not......

my peers have forgotten what it is that brings honor
and the right hour
that we were supposed to take over
and turn things around
they are sinking deeper into corruption
they fight for higher positions
so they can steal
and enrich themselves
selling our land to foreigners
i pray unto God
to raise us a nation
that's going to hate corruption
and despise all the acts related to it
we lack vision and confidence
and really ignore
what it is that brings honor....

Stay away from them, he told me. They are foreigners.
I too am a foreigner. 
This is America, after all.
Anyone who is not a Native American is a foreigner.
We Europeans ran over here and land-grabbed land from people
Who thought land was to be shared, not owned.
I am born here, and I still feel like a foreigner.
I am not Native American, after all.
So, yes, I am a foreigner.
It would make no sense for me to stay away from other foreigners.
But I shall stay away from him....

It is time for pest control the cowboy way
There is no need for chemical spray
Put on those boots with the pointed toes
To destroy those pestilent foes
Smash the cockroaches as they scamper to the corners
Those death and disease carrying foreigners
Chase the vermin to the brink of their hiding places
Just before they enter the safety of their breeding spaces 
The last vision they will see is the shadow of the western boot
Because sandals are not worn by the cowboy sort of brute...
