Mantra for Migrants
Always becoming, will never be
Always arriving, must never land
Between back home unfathomable, is me
– By definition: immigrant
I’ll always be oh glorious
Glorious unchangeable
In truth, I am in flux
Immigrant I will forever be
Migrant oh yes, oh migrant me
Migrant immutable amazing unchangeable
Always becoming, will never be
Always arriving, must never land
I pledge citizenship, unerring
Loyalty, to this State of Migrancy
- Shani Mootoo The Predicament of Or
