One or two things. Incognito is one word.

what the playground chants are now... we used to parrot chants about Ho Chi Minh, with no clue where Vietnam was. This has that kind of hypnotic rhythm. Cleverly done.

in this deceptively simple poem. I wonder if wouldn't work better without the first line? You show us all of that in the rest of the poem.
