WHAT IS THE POINT of having borders?
What do lines on a maps mean?
Okay, they may mark mountains and waters,
but, if they don't, they cannot be seen
as anything other than arbitrary —
something to note in obituaries:
“a lifelong resident of this or that place,
a credit/demerit to this or that ‘race’”.
(Another mistaken classification —
imagining an ephemeral “nation”.)
Yes, there ARE differences which are really real,
but things like these are not a big deal.
