A poem powerful and sorrowful, Anthony, I resonate. At least I think I understand. I feel like our existing vocabulary can no longer express the shock of these assaults on our freedom. I can find no words for what is happening here (Chinese or English) and even more so in my country of origin. The words we used to throw at such injustices have lost their force. You seem to have captured something of the indignation and malaise.

All the cases are administrative, related to visas, even though foreigners have been performing this way in Beijing for decades
