Help Us God

A civil war in the making today
Dividing the folks in the USA
I blame the TV stations loud and clear
They do not listen, commentators don't hear

They want to stir us up and make us mad
They divide us truly, they are horrible and bad
A civil war. I fear it is coming my way
We have never been this divided in the USA

We used to be one, a nation under God.
This has changed drastically, with a simple nod
Social media is partly to blame
Help us God, this is no longer a game!

Caren, I share your concerns. But, I think we will begin to mellow out when we come through this COVID thing. Everyone is so full of anxiety, now. I have stopped watching TV and cable news programs, period.
