Stephanie reads her piece at the release party for Words Unburden Me on April 30, 2021. Immigration/Deportation In a car there is a person trying to get to work. He is happy, well. Goodbye to his daughters, he said less. He knows it was his last goodbye. There he goes waiting for the red light to turn into a green light. Once it turns to green, he tries to turn. Once he sees blue and red lights and hears a siren he stops and waits. Police search his car and he has no license nor insurance. Police take him, his phone stays in the car. His wife is really worried. At 3:00 p.m., she gets a phone call not knowing who it was. She answers the phone. It is her husband. Both in tears, speaking and trying to find ways to get him out. But at last, off he goes on an adventure to his homeplace where he was born. That car is left with his wife and she sells it to not have any memory of what happened to her husband with that car.
