A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Free Verse
Troubled Waters
by Gypsy Blue Rose
Presentation and Poem by Gypsy Blue Rose (c) copyright @11/25/24
Billy’s future hangs off the bare bough’s edge rocked by winds of change. . Roots don’t touch the ground as Billy plunges in troubled waters of rushing rapids.

WASHINGTON- AP (Associated Press) is a nonpartisan and not-for-profit news agency. AP's headquarters is in New York City. It was founded in 1846.
Migrant families separated under Trump's 2016-2020 presidency, still feel the fallout and they fear Trump's return to office.
Sixteen-year-old Billy's friends don't know he was one of the thousands of children separated from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border during the 2016 to 2020 President Donald Trump's zero-tolerance immigration policy.
Billy's father was told six years ago that Billy was being given up for adoption and feared he would never see his son again.
With Trump back in office, Billy wants people to know that what happened to him and several thousand other children still affects them. Some families have not been reunited, and many of those together in the U.S. have temporary status and fear that Trump will carry out his promised mass deportations and detention camps during his presidency. Detention camps, does that sound familiar?
The "Project 2025" provides a roadmap for the Trump presidency to downsize the federal government and fundamentally change how it works, including the tax system, immigration enforcement, social welfare programs, Social Security Insurance and Medicare, women's reproductive rights, and energy policy, particularly those designed to address climate change. if you want to read more about the far-right's "Project 2025" click here
