The Question

This is a kind of free verse poem/essay, one that's unusual for me because of its political nature. The election, over a year ago now, settled things for a time, but the person the poem alludes to remains in the spotlight.

THE QUESTION

I can't see Russia
From my house.

But I have seen
Japanese cars
And eaten
Mexican food.

Is that enough?
