Framingham, MA: Group Protests Simic
The anti-immigrant group that protested a presentation on toxic cleaners for Brazilian domestic workers has now launched a campaign against the in-coming poet laureate of the United States.
"Don't we have enough American poets? Who is the guy Simic, anyway, stealing jobs from Americans?" said the leader of the now-famous anti-immigrant group.
"We hadn't noticed until our demonstration here a few weeks ago that this damned library is filled with foreigners -- What the hell is this! We demand American books, by American readers and for American readers!!!"
The picket line began to chant, "No more Tolstoy, no more Chekhov, no more Greeks, no more Jews! Just us, USA, USA, USA! Yahoo!!!!"
It didn't rhyme but it scared the shit out of me anyway.
