Andrew Delapruch Poet Free verse

Be With Cali

89 years 
for a room full of idiots to end slavery on paper in the US &
89 years 
for that room full of idiots to get their *****together & stop Jim Crow---
it took them 92 years to 
allow African-American men the right to vote &
a big whomping 144  
to come to the conclusion that women should also 
have that same right &
it took a different room of idiots
191 years to figure out that racially segregating marriage
by imprisoning “offenders” for five years 
was a ****ed up idea,
and so now, at a crossroads again,
america, “the land of the free”
has a problem with its homosexual citizens having the right 
to marry &
a new room full of idiots is beginning to wake up in California,
as they have already in  
Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, & Washington, D. C &
in a few days, 
Washington state
(to be the 7th state in US)---
it is time to be with Cali,
to push Prop 8 over &
stomp it dead so that EVERYONE in that state
will be allowed to marry 
if they choose to,
regardless of their sexual preference &
hopefully sooner than later,
other rooms full of idiots 
upon rooms full of idiots
will do the same until one more
step has been accomplished 
as a pre-requisite before it can ever truly claim to be
“the land of the free.”
