Walls Poems For Poem a Thon 2018

April 2 Walls Trump wants a wall Between America and Mexico A wall against the southern hordes A wall based on fear and hate A wall to make America safe A wall to make America great again And yet I wonder Will his wall fall Like the Berlin wall And the great wall And all the other walls They all failed All of them Walls divide us Walls make us Into different tribes Between the pure And the impure St Reagan Said Tear Down this Wall Will future Presidents Tear down this begotten wall Or will it become a tourist attraction Another great wall Against barbarian hordes April 2 Trump’s Wall Against Reason The President wants to build a wall Against the southern hordes Another great wall To keep the barbarians out He wants to build a wall Against reason Against science Against the modern world Hiding behind the wall On the southern border Desperately trying to keep them out The unwashed masses The undocumented The illegals Streaming across the border Seeking to wreck the pure land Murderous hordes Rapists, drug dealers Coming to take our land over As he stands on the border Trying to stop the hordes himself April 2 It Has Been Done Before Before Trump’s Wall There were many other walls The Berlin Wall The Great Wall Hadrian’s Wall All the walls of the ancient world All failed To keep the enemies out The enemies of freedom The enemies of the state Still came across the border To loot, steal, rape and plunder And nothing could stop The flood of history April 2 Walls Divide Us In Modern America We all live in gated communities Trying desperately to keep them out Out of sight Out of mind And out of our lives And yet we fail Fail to accept the others Are human beings Are our fellow creatures As we wall ourselves off Into our separate communities We loose our humanity And we loose our selves As we hide in our walls Hide in our bubbles April 2 Mr. Trump Please tear down this wall Please open up your heart Please stop this madness We are all Americans We are all one people And your wall Will not stop us From becoming one people Please tear down this wall Please build bridges to the future Please open your heart And let the love shine through
