Begging For Apologies

What are people waiting for? They're yelling, can you hear?
They're wanting an apology, I'm offended that is clear
I'm nor inferring anything, to make my point to you
Some people turn a blind eye, and at times a deaf ear too
You really must be thinking, why care about the Vet
You think the more important point, what immigrants should get

Forget about the homeless Vets, (they helped to make you free)
Fight for rights of immigrants, they want it all, you'll see
No, we're not talking all of them, but take a look around
I mean throughout the USA, assimilation can't be found
They're ethnic tight communities, you wouldn't dare move there
Our Government's not mandating, they open up and share

It really took us quite a while to share with everyone
and after many years of strife, it finally has been done
Discrimination ads are airing, Government plans today
each and every block must mix, throughout the USA
Forget the Middle-Easterners , their communities stay intact
they need not ever mix with us, our Government speaks, that's fact

They scream "Islamic-phobia" what right have we to judge 
like other groups from years now past, some will hold a grudge
The danger comes as time goes by, their conscience guides their way
they feel compelled to wage their war, so expect them any day
Don't even try to change their mind, their path is carved in stone
our way of life they can't accept, our peace they won't condone.....

Excellent poem and sharp, vivid observation on the current invasion by supposed "immigrants" . Only one religion teaches killing, and we know which religion that is. People must wake up. Rated 7. ~~~Cynthia
