 The China Train(Poem: Joseph Nambimadam)
During lunch break, on my way to get lunch

The level crossing gate closed on me

Life on both sides came to a stand still

Here comes a freight train

All bogies marked CHINA

Loaded with products made in China

Made for Americans, to be sold in America

From A to Z, Needles to Nike, iphones to air plane

The train that connects, Communism to Capitalism

The train that connects, stars on red, to stars on blue

From behind the iron curtains

To the land of the free

The China train is going on.. and on..and on..

The China train is passing by …

The endless rows, of closed American businesses,

The endless lines, of the unemployed

Like the Great Wall of China, huge and long

Through the heart of America

Clogging the arteries of American businesses

The China train is going on…and on..an on..

As quite as it could, And as fast as it could

The China train is passing by.. and   passing by..

As quite as it could, And as fast as it could.
