Happy Independence Day to everyone in the US, including all the immigrants and refugees.
Let us treat all men and women as our brothers and sisters. And let no crappy politicians and leaders sow division between people so that they can profit and rule. Now, in that spirit, let me say that I have always admired this fine egalitarian poem by Emily Dickinson, one of America's greatest poets. Thanks, Mike, for including it.

Refugee
by Emily Dickinson
These Strangers, in a foreign World,
Protection asked of me―
Befriend them, lest Yourself in Heaven
Be found a Refugee―
"Refugee" is a fine poem that remains relevant today.
