Meru Groen Poet Dramatic Monologue

The World As We Know It

Records of the day stand in evidence, of the state, in which the World exists today.  The torment of men in power, and the people they represent, is the incredible disparity between the two sides.  Only the most selfish reach the level of weedy words that can come from screeching mouths!  The state at which a modern system of peaceful existence can be perverted to stand neck and neck with groups like the K.K.K.!  Imagine, and I believe you can, if the Founding Fathers could see us now, all the hard work and bloodshed for what, some fools jumping around spouting new levels of hateful and inciteful language and threats being bantered around, trying to run down the stately manner in which our nation was created, indifferent to the notion of what they could be handing down to their most precious commodity...our children!  Great governments can only work if the people work inside the honorable ways, that stand the test of chaos, to stand in the shadows of great men who look down from their high place and bend on one knee for the state of their beloved inspired and stunning creation.  Fearful of what is actually a dangerous chink in the understanding of what our nation is or isn't!  Only people with that in mind can navigate the deep divergence in legal interpretations that bend the structure of something better left alone.  Great Kings and Imperial Masters can attest to the results of slipping a word in here and a period left out there.  Those who came before us, their faces  on the bills we hold in our hands, frozen in the indelible stare that silently says...dare not to diminish the columns that support this brandished and vulnerable vision that we callously call...Our Home!
