Emma Lazarus' sonnet, today.

An excerpted portion, rewritten for today's America:

With silent lips. "Give me your righteous, your rich,
Your individual libertarians yearning to live alone,
The celebrated fame of your gated communities.
Send these, the luxuriated, pampered to me,
I bow my head beside your golden foot!"
by me.
