    I have one of them. Scroll to almost the end-right corner.

    Check out Bill Yarrow's, too. We're next door neighbors.

    Good collection, Gary - and Bill's also. Noticed works by Barbara Jane Reyes and Eileen Tabios- two of my favorite writers.

    I would venture to say that most, if not all, of these selections are un-American/anti-American.

    Maybe this isn't the place to ask, but I've been wondering ever since The Simpsons, is the spelling "duh" or "doh"

    Un-American?

    I, Too
    By Langston Hughes

    I, too, sing America.

    I am the darker brother.
    They send me to eat in the kitchen
    When company comes,

    But I laugh,
    And eat well,
    And grow strong.

    Tomorrow,
    I’ll be at the table
    When company comes.

    Nobody’ll dare
    Say to me,
    “Eat in the kitchen,”
    Then.

    Besides,
    They’ll see how beautiful I am
    And be ashamed—

    I, too, am America.
