"Shut Up," A parodic response to the poem, "Speak Up," by Janet S. Wong

Jade_Jester


Oh, Im Romanian.

Really?

Yes, but I don't speak Romanian.

What?
but it should be your native language.
You said you were born there!

No, I was born here.

But then that makes you an American like me!
You Liar!

Oh no, I am Romanian-

Listen here:
if you are born in a certain place, then you are native to that place.
I have Italian ancestors, but I was born here.
That means I am not Italian, I am American.

  • Comment from author about the poem: The hypocrisy of the original poem inspired me to make this short response. I encourage you, the viewer, to read the original.
