In a jiffy, a line is drawn,
Maps are made in closed rooms,
Relationships in a snap, withdrawn,
And, a separate future looms.
Families are broken apart,
All for an arbitrary line,
Fences built, play their part,
With the singular aim to confine.
Creating borders is fairly swift,
Mingling, conversely, daunting.
Rather than at division, be miffed,
Togetherness, shouldn't we be flaunting?
Never too late! This is powerful. True. You have me thinking.
