Yes
Send them all back
Unsink the Atlantic Crossing bones
Ungrow the cane that sugared the white mansion walls
Unspool the cotton back onto the boll
Unchop the lumbered mountainsides
Unopen the westward trail
Unland the Pilgrims
Unchallenge King George
Unemploy the slaves
Unrape the brown women
Undroop the tree limbs, unslice the brown cocks and balls of men
Unspike the railroads, unship the spikers,
Untunnel the subways,
Unsky the scrapers,
Unmodel the T’s,
Unsteel the ore,
Ungush the oil,
Unlight the lamps,
Unpave the paths,
Unwheel the wagons,
UnAmerica the beautiful.
-Bruce A. Jacobs
