Self reliant
No......
Dangerously defiant
A country cold
and heartless
Teachers starving
Students carving
out a niche in the streets
A country serving up platters of
deceit
Bipartisan bickering endless
Forgotten souls defenseless
against the sting of
America
the beautiful?
America the free?
America, the greatest country?
Who are we kidding
Certainly not ourselves
as we sink into the
mess we have created
over decades of bravado
and capitalist bullshit
It's a miracle we are standing
yet
How do we kill the fire?
How to ask the sun to forgive
us?
How to revive mercy in the
midst of our malignant
madness to conquer and collect
How can we look into a hungry
face and turn in neglect
How do we heal a wound..... gaping
When soldiers overseas are raping
their own comrades
Comrades in arms
Comrades that harm
their own
Get me the hell outta here
I want to go home
