Glass Case

ROBERT SHERRIFF - AUSTRALIAN - POET -AUTHOR - SINGER - ACTOR - AMERICAN HISTORIAN – PHOTOGRAPHER Glass Case In a glass case where there are glass splinters, America is the land of the free. No need to lock yourself up in your mind. What happened? Were you taught from an early age that you were stuck in a parallel where there is no end in sight, worlds without end and worlds without laughter, only tears? Why give your children a gun so you can make them as paranoid as you? So that they can go out and kill? You give them mobile phones and computer games that make them angry. When I was young, I went outside and got dirty. Teach your children love, faith, family, and the American way. Apple pies and pride in your history. Let them know they can achieve anything, be someone—a great leader, a great teacher. Where a gun puts them in jail for life or face execution. RLS 4/10/2024
