A brief free verse poem titled "Legal Alien" discusses the identity of the Mexican American who is torn between two cultures and must contend with <em>hostility on both sides.</em>

<em />

A legal alien is a person who is a citizen of another nation but is allowed to reside in the US by the government. Being a token in the context of "Legal Alien" represents the <em>speaker being treated as an item and subsequently degraded by others. </em>In an English-speaking business, when they are employed as a sign of diversity without any genuine attempts to incorporate them as a whole person, they could feel like a token.

Pat Mora develops a nuanced characterization of the average legal immigrant using <em>metaphor, imagery, language, and antithesis. </em>22 lines of a single sentence make up the poetry.

There are several critics on the issue of students taking snacks or food to class. Some teachers say that it will cause too much distraction, reducing student's ability to learn as they will share snacks and will be looking at what other students brought to class.

However, consider the fact that middle school learners are growing at an incredible rate. Their body needs energy and their minds get tired if they spend too much time withouth eating.  Food is like fuel to the brain. Allowing snacks will actually increase sutdnet's ability to learn as it will take away the distraction of hunger.
