“Nativo Extranjero (El Soneto)
Cuando los nativos son tratados como extranjeros,
y los extranjeros toman el poder como amos,
las culturas son desarraigadas por decreto legal,
el honor es robado como botín de guerra,
imperios erigidos sobre sangre y huesos,
cuando la prosperidad tiene sus raíces en el saqueo,
los hogares son despojados de esperanzas y sueños,
las violaciones alimentan el palacio del desatino,
cuando los babuinos se adornan con artículos pirata,
cada joya está empapada en derramamiento de sangre,
cuando las festividades prosperan gracias al robo,
la corrección es maldecida como blasfema,
desafiando el delirio del rey y el país, levántense,
y erguíense humanos contra la inhumanidad imperial.”
