What Happened To Our Once Great Country?
I hear your pleas...
Amen Brothers and Sisters!
I mean we don't want anything more
than a society which we can respect...
lotteries... crooked politicians...
debt to foreign nations
who consider us an enemy...
it's just getting to be a bit much.
Sure we have had to do much
to become a more perfect nation...
but we used to try...
now its open season
on everyone in the name of fairness
while they twist and turn
the blade of corruption
in our gut.
...Now its just wistful poetry...
