Awaken America Awaken

Awaken America, Awaken. Why do you fret? We allowed our rights to be taken; inevitably giving rise to our nations demise. Our inalienable rights are at stake in these United States; our legitimate claim. But, all is not lost, at least, not yet. Awaken America, awaken, or more shall unfold, just as our forefathers foretold. Have we forgotten what our nation was founded upon; what made us great? Continuing at this pace, it is only a matter of time before all our liberty will be taken. Awaken America, awaken. All nations have problems to solve; we are not exempt. Have we forgotten, regardless of our differences, we are one people; one nation? Have we forgotten there is no justice without judgement. Awaken America, awaken. There are those who choose no refrain; forcing views not shared by the nation as a whole. Yet we live as victims of egregious systems; seen as weak and conditioned to believe everything is out of control and beyond repair. Awaken America, awaken, or repercussions we will continue to see, until we stand firm and fight once again to be free; one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

I totally agree Madalyn, we are asleep while our Constitution is slowly getting eroded little by little! Powerful truthful words in your poem!:)
