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!

John Fleming Date: 12/6/2015 12:06:00 PM 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 Login to Reply Judy Konos Date: 12/8/2015 3:07:00 PM thanks for stopping by John.....
