He was left with nothing
“To get his whole life packed in
two bags,
Just
Two bags”
“Couldn’t even pack his
clothes”
It was hard
All alone,
But together
Isolated from the

Community

But nonetheless a
community
In itself
“All the Japanese have to
Go”
Get out
We don’t want

You



Anymore.
We fear

You

But why?
“Prisoners of war in their

own country,”

We stick up for

Our country

We sacrifice ourselves

For our country
But

Now look
What life has
Come down
To.
