Immigrant/Alien

I wasn't born in Uruguay,
and yet I drink ma-te
everyday.
My birth and marriage,
far away,
are recorded here.

[Not end of story.]

I was born nude,
but not a nudist,
yet nakedness
is where I thrive.

I am a stranger
in a strange land,
uncomprehending,
but as logical
as Spock.

I do not laugh
at your pain.
