The July Founders

You return every year and the same month That is what I remember as I bid you farewell Six months ago; Riding on an old short-legged shoe In the parameter of being a White or Hispanic Or just a dead Indian instead I listen in full To the lengthy story of a Black President; The fumblingly sound of hope While the leeks sway me.
