The Women that America Borrowed
Latinos
Africans
Europeans
Asians
They came tattered
Worn and dusty
Seemingly worthless; America borrowed them
Torn pages
Ear-dogged pages
Stained pages
Bent at their spines
No one would read them
Filled with stories
America borrowed them
In them, contained ideas on the arts
Science
Literature
Philosophy
America borrowed them
From them, America recited their stories
America borrowed them; they were never returned
