Who are these immigrants who mow all of this grass <br />in the medium strips and along the roadsides; <br />areas that pedestrians don’t use. Whose job is it to fertilize <br />and maintain this acreage; to kill the clover and dandelion <br />that constantly flowers. Why is it necessary to beautify <br />the tedious routes we take to and fro; the ones paved <br />over as a short cut between points A and B. <br />What about XYZ? ; out where expelled tire treads <br />litter the road and where a gallon of gas is not enough <br />to get you home… <br />Who are these immigrants who come here to mow America's lawn? <br /> <br /> <br />2008 © TS<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/america-the-beautiful-as-a-second-language/
