| THE PIER |
CAN AMERICA BE SO CRUEL JUST BECAUSE THEY WANT TO RULE DO YOU KNOW WHAT I SEE WHEN I COME TO THIS PIER, YOU & ME MEMEORIES AS I LOOK BEYOND THIS PIER BEARING RESEMBLANCE TO THAT OF PEARL HARBOR YEAR I SEE OUR LOVED ONES TAKEN FROM THEIR HOMES FORSAKEN |
| JAPANESE ARRESTED, LIVING IN AMERICA WITH THEIR CHILDREN BORN IN AMERICA NO TRUST WITH JAPANESE-AMERICANS SINCE PEARL HARBOR WAS AT ACTIONS T'WAS NOT YOUR FAULT MY SWEET MIYAMOTO WE WERE JAPANESE BORN IN AMERICA, WOE NOW YOU ARE GONE LEAVING ME SO FORLORN |
| MY WHOLE FAMILY TAKEN TO RELOCATION CAMP EVEN I, DIDN'T WANT TO BE A JAP I SAID, "I AM AMERICAN" BUT THEY LAUGHED AT MY FACE THIS PIER BRINGS MY THOUGHTS TO YOUR EMBRACE TELLING ME NOT TO WORRY THERE IS ONE AMERICAN TELLING A GOOD STORY.... |
