What is Mien?

Who am I?
Am I American, Mienh?
No clear definition
Just a vague word that no one's understanding
Wherever I go, they ask
What country are you come from?
Never heard of that...
I must be dumb...
Is that like Chinese?
Vietnamese?
Oh, you don't have a country?
Must be sad then.
Just some people in the mountains?
I respond..
Oh.....
I don't know
Yea...
Uh huh
Got no time for explanation
Why don't you just grab some books
And do some research
