 Whereby men take hold of it And mark it with signs for its remembrance.
 It is a river, this language, 
Once in a thousand years Breaking a new course 
Changing its way to the ocean. 
It is mountain effluvia
Moving to valleys 
And from nation to nation
 Crossing borders and mixing.
Languages die like rivers.
Words wrapped round your tongue today 
And broken to shape of thought 
Between your teeth and lips speaking
Now and today 
Shall be faded hieroglyphics 
Ten thousand years from now. 
Sing—and singing—remember
 Your song dies and changes 
And is not here to-morrow
Any more than the wind
Blowing ten thousand years ago]]> 2020-10-27 14:01:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tabitham62963/2vuhrmgqyipwhurf/wish/865741478 tabitham62963 https://padlet.com/tabitham62963/2vuhrmgqyipwhurf/wish/865757641 Carl Sandburg]]> 2020-10-27 14:04:32 UTC https://padlet.com/tabitham62963/2vuhrmgqyipwhurf/wish/865757641 tabitham62963 https://padlet.com/tabitham62963/2vuhrmgqyipwhurf/wish/865789336 William Carlos Williams is a Puerto Rican-American Poet and physician born in 1883 in Rutherford, New Jersey.

Mass immigration was huge during the 20th Century, when people from all around the world came to America for better opportunities. He knew English was seen as a "universal" language in America.
