We the People
Are We The People?
Our Constitution is a fact
For many years it’s been intact
Amendment two our favorite one
To speak with freedom barring none
An independence to declare
That we are equal from our birth
Proclaimed by Lincoln but the dearth
Of lacking freedom of respect
Torch lit marchers still move on a
Miilliennium of hate returns
Again the president affirms
Let’s make America vague again
To delve into ambiguity
Alas, our history in pain
Repeats itself as if to say
Free speech of hate is not the way
