Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor

Post by mnaz » January 16th, 2026, 2:24 am

Give me your tired, your poor
to make a new life in America.
There's a plaque with a poem,
installed on the liberty statue,
circa late nineteenth century.

Circa early 21st century,
our president declared
"the country is closed."

Times change.
