No immigrant has taken your job. You were laid off by a capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear you blame the immigrant and not him.

A poetry prompt by Mandy Haggith that reads: Oftentimes, the silliest stories end with, 'And then I woke up', so turn it on its head and start a poem with this phrase instead.
✍️ #NaPoWriMo is here with the challenge to write a poem a day! Throughout April, The Poetry Society will be featuring poetry writing prompts created by poets that we've worked with recently through competitions, publications and projects.
