John Goodman Poet Free verse

I Can and Do Love America

I do believe it is possible to truly love America

and now I can say that

Now I can say that I love America

boldly speaking my mind for what is right

realizing destiny of thomas paine's constitution of 

goodness and mercy

now I can say that I believed

now I can realize my true American destiny

so much more than shopping malls

and big macs

so much more than filibustering

America is humanism

Thoreau, Emerson and Unitarian preachers

honesty, kindness, wise, and trying to realize our destiny

o, it gets lost so easily

but now I know

how to find it.
