We the People

Divide us? You try
The forces that be
Creating turmoil and strife

Not even attempting
At making amends
For disruption of every ones life

Divide us? You try
The forces that be
Creating more suffering and pain

Turning a blind eye
Feign the unknowing
Your efforts are all done in vain

Divide us?  You try
The forces that be
There is no mistaking your aim

The masses are waking
They're going to resist
When they win it won't be the same.....

A very strong and assertive poem carrying a tone of patriotism and resolve to fight for one's freedom. Superb!
