America
this is our country tis of thee' were people are alike yet divided into groups.we ahve the poor
the middle class the rich and the non existed.who is AMERICA.we are the homeless man
under a bridge covered with newspapers.we are the prostitute on the corner turning a trick
for a hit.we are the police man who got shot trying to arrest a murder.yet we are the murder
who lost his mind and killed his whole family.we are the children in the schoolyard running all
around yet we are also the bully in the hallway pushing young kids around.
we are the man on the corner slinging his drugs all day to the people who fall victom to this
evil everyday.we are the nurses in the hospital who help the doctors save our lives yet we
are the doctors who give a pill to a dying soul to end their suffering.we are the pimps on the
corner who sell their woman for a price yet we are the men and women who pay for sex
disregarding our on morals.
we are the men and woman fighting over seas dying everyday to protect this land of liberty
home of the free.we are the people who build the bombs that take lives away yet we are the
judges who took the oath to put them away.we are the men and women who sit on the jury
to decide someones fate yet we are the ones who make the choice to take their freedom
away.
who are we?we are AMERICA!
