Data Haiku

" Data Haiku "

by Suzán Jiván

I

Data made public
estimates and projections
long been expected

II

Weighing a hard line
while wrestling mightily
with a white milestone

III

Bitter civil rights
from the days of slavery
mostly recently

IV

A majority
Hispanics, blacks and Asians
with those of mixed race

V

Broad implications
restrictive immigration
as transformation

VI

Highly-charged debates
compelling and disturbing
so far shied away...
