No More Toilets For Lupe Poem by Donal Mahoney

No More Toilets For Lupe



If The Donald gets his way
Lupe will no longer
clean toilets in America

working in hotels
following her husband,
Pablo, as he follows

produce ripening
on vines and trees
and in fields from

California to Alabama
picking peaches
and melons every day

week after week
during the harvest
for you and for me and

The Donald who says
if he gets his way,
Lupe and Pablo will

go back to the village
where a toilet has
yet to be seen.

I guess you're not voting for T-rumpilstiltskin! America needs more Lupes and Pablos and less New Hampshire hillbillies. This evening's debates should be interesting.
