What's Real
The left thinks they’re right.
The right thinks, “yeah right.”
Elitist. Extremist. Radical. Hack.
A collection of pots and kettles screaming, "You're black."
Each “listens” to reply.
Understanding is lost.
Alternative fact? Or lie.
We shudder to count up the cost.
So much confusion
So little insight
The state of the union
Is her people looking for true light.
Unsure what to think. Unsure how to feel.
News or commentary – they wonder what’s real.
