read the excerpt from in response to executive order 9066. of course i’ll come. i’ve packed my galoshes and three packets of tomato seeds. denise calls them love apples. my father says where we’re going they won’t grow. the father’s comment in this stanza lends the poem a tone of playfulness. irony. formality. hopelessness.
