Travel thousands of miles Seeking refuge. By train By foot Across deserts And rivers Dodging death. The flashlight of freedom Shines in their eyes As they are greeted By barbed wire And guns At the border entry. Put their name On La Lista Told to wait And wait And wait In Mexico For months Years Less than 100 Allowed in Each day To request asylum. Backed up Back log Back track Back home Back. Starving Scared Stuck Between life and death. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/trump-restricted-flow-border-more-migrants-trying-sneak-through-undetected-n976356
