United States of America

In commemoration of America's upcoming birthday, I dedicate this Acrostic poem.


UNITY  is foundational

NO  kings

INDIVIDUAL  rights

TYRANNY  no more

EQUALITY  of access for all

DOMESTIC  tranquility


SLAVERY was acrosus 

TAXATION  with representation

ASSEMBLY  for redress of grievances 

TRAIL of tears

EVERY  legal vote must be counted

STATUTORY  government


OPPORTUNITY  for all citizens

FAILURE  is not an option


ASSSIMULATION,  not separation

MAGNANAMOUS  nation and people

ECONOMIC  power house

RELIGIOUS  freedom

IMAGINATION,   dreams, and vision

COMPASSION  for the poor and weak

ALL  for one and one for all
