Once in English they said America. Was it English to them. <br />Once they said Belgian. <br />We like a fog. <br />Do you for weather. <br />Are we brave. <br />Are we true. <br />Have we the national colour. <br />Can we stand ditches. <br />Can we mean well. <br />Do we talk together. <br />Have we red cross. <br />A great many people speak of feet. <br />And socks.<br /><br />Gertrude Stein<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/america-59/
