Poem

Welcome
to the age of the bully boys
 pulling little girls curls and stealing others toys
 unraveling the flag as it unfurls of a nation divided
 shouting louder and defiant babblery so misguided
 posturing without intelligible commentary
 while the rights and needs of the people are ancillary
 cut and bleeding like on open heart's coronary;

a time of liars and deniers, deflectors and excusers
 speculation on heroes, the winners and the losers
 a pause of common sense and courtesy adversary
 a forgotten loss of once-great American constabulary;

 an excuse for mistakes made by behooves
 by the shakers and the non-political movers
 the baby boomers of the sixties dream once a plenty
 now, without memory of the changes of the century;

tell me what you'll say
 when comes your children's day
 and the question they will ask
 where did you stand in the past?

Did you stand for freedom or walk the party lines
 tell what purposeful intrigue did you find?
 was it only the loudest voice, the elephant in the room
 taking honesty and silence permitting America to doom?

Step aside bully boys, American dreams are still here
 and the people's voice grows louder, every day more clear
 justice, freedom and equality for all
 make a choice, it's your last call.
