Internment Camp
The parched earth waits for April miracles
Though spring was done long ago
(As if the summer sun could be
Incentive for the grass to grow!)
The dust is blown by strong, wild winds
And seeds choke in unwatered sand—
How can the roots endure this drought
Denied the shelter of the land?
Toyo Suyemoto (1943)
