Borders are
obscenities, Scars across the living Earth, Remnants of old wounds; Bastions of good luck at birth; Death among the dunes; Walls to stop a surging sea, Keeping back the tide Of those of us who are not we Yet would join us inside; Fortresses of fortunes good And prison camps of bad; Boundaries of brotherhood In mines and sensors clad; Soon, we hope, to be just lines Unnoticed as we pass Some unobtrusive welcome signs Half hidden in tall grass.
