America


America

Let's all hate it?
Sorry, I don't understand.
All countries have problems!
One can always leave.
That's an option we have.
But, other countries have limits.
and qualifications.
And no, you cannot just walk in.

To me this country belongs to
God.
No group claiming, they were
here first.
Or by placing a foot on our
soil, you are automatically,
American.
Try that in Canada..do you
really think that makes you
automatically, Canadian?

Reminds me of Israel, a truly great 
and auspicious nation.
With various groups killing Jews
to own that nation, with knives,
bombs and rock throwing.
Posing a deceitful history and
provoking death and bloody
confrontation.

We, here, stab our own country and
each other!

Such is the result of PC history,
the younger set was taught.
Give professors a book and
all they teach is never questioned
...just one hundred percent bought?
And the news media pedals this
same, far left thought.

As one person of color said
with great humor yet pathos,
too:
" I never thought I would see
the day, when white folks were
going around apologizing for
being white."
What terrifically, pathetic irony!

Poet's Notes: I was not going to
post this, but am appalled by
Americans in particular who hate
this Country as a Constitutional
Republic, drool for Communism 
here, and even worse, laud the 
killing of children. We give much 
to other nations for protection. 
And the response? 
The "finger" and total ungratefulness.
Add arrogance, too.

One thing about America: Its 350 million or so residents have 350 million opinions about what this country is. Can any other country claim such a distinction? :) gw
