Four Walls To Build One To Destroy

We all know that a wall or fence protects, but a home it does not build

For that we need more than building skills, we need political will

And a leader who will actually enforce the laws

Not pick and chose which for a democracy is an imperial fatal flaw

If we are serious about the need

To illegal immigration impede

After the construction of what should be called Trump’s wall

The first one to the flood of illegals block and stall

We need to build three more sturdy walls

The first one is to end for illegal aliens’ access to the welfare and benefits mall

No more licenses, food stamps, welfare and except in needs of community health no free medical care

The second is a wall around the payroll office to payments to illegals impair

The third wall may be easier to enforce and implement

No money by illegal aliens may be back to their home country be sent

Build four walls but also tear an existing one down

No more sanctuary cities, no more sanctuary towns

Not one more Kate Steinle or Marilyn Pharis with their lives cut short

Then and only then can we start to figure how to the issues beginn to sort

To figure out what skills from abroad to increase our competiveness we will need

What capital coming in for new business and technology to seed

With a border reasonably secure and a rational policy to needed immigrants admit

We can address what must be done for the assimilation of those already here but needed permit
