Oblivion

Mired in the worst humanitarian crisis Syrian refugees seek shelter from ISIS Cries are heard throughout our nations Governors set up SWAT Team Stations "Why put us in danger?" the signs reflect People ravished in lines with little effect No matter how torn nor hungry ye be Ye shall not live in the Home of the Free! For now they all wait seeking shelter and food Their tomorrow depends on America's Mood! 12/6/15

Sadly true, Judy Konos. It is always the same: The weak will suffer the most! The time is fast approaching when people will have to pick a side to be on. Rightly or wrongly: Lines will be drawn in the hot, red sand. Very well expressed...A seven. My very best regards! :) john
