Window Pain

What do you see when you look at me
Impotent leaders of land once free
Now ashamed and lacking good name
Democracy a hypocrisy not civil insane
Once a beacon now an embarrassment 
While Lady Liberty falls further in descent

People are hungry tired and misled
As the rich get richer, the poor unfed 
In due time God will surely intervene 
Now America is land of a fake king

This is an amazingly well-done acrostic, methinks. Kudos, Gershon
