Democracy of America

Democracy,.... When we cease To be a democracy By extension, We cease to be a dream Muffled in the seeds Of division and muddled In abstention in acumination ------ Only to wimpier without a sound Which echoes to the name of a place? Where the “Eagles” doth’ bound And that is a place called “America” Gary Fields Poet, Author
