Native Americans
Long before the ships arrived
Bringing European man,
America’s native people
Dwelt here and loved this land.

Great Spirit was the name they had
For the God that nurtured them,
They asked his blessings invoked his name
And sent their dead to him.

They organized in time of need 
To give them strength...

Americans
Let's sit back, relax
And all count out the cost
As the initial wave of shock
Wears itself thinly off
One side had to win
While the other side sadly saw
The beginning of the end
In what is now their loss

But aren't we still Americans
When all of this is said
Some voted...

Premium Member Thoughtless Americans
I will be most blessed to be long frozen
If Trump comes back to the White House
Thoughtless Americans will have chosen.

When I die, I’ll be quickly flash-frozen
Escaping another term for that louse
I will be most blessed to be long frozen!

Can statesmen please put their toes in?
If...

Premium Member The Ugly Americans
That's what we've become
The Ugly Americans
We allow our government
to strip infants and children
from their parents
and put them
into detention centers
some never to see
them again
How low can we go?
What happened to America
the alleged bastion
of freedom and liberty?
It's a shame
to see a country
slide into decadence
losing it's values and...

“Whatever” Americans
By Franklin Price
11/24/2015

“Whatever” Americans 
Are what we have become
By being politically correct
We've become dumber than dumb

Seems we have forgotten
What America's about
We must return to basics
To remove the current doubt

Most of all there's freedom
To practice what we choose
That doesn't mean the chosen few
We all have...

HYPHENATED AMERICANS

You have the biggies like Chinese-Americans
And Latino-Americans and German-Americans;
And miniscule groups like Armenian-Americans
Or   Bosnia-and-Herzegovinan-Americans;
But why do we never hear of  English-Americans,
Scottish-Americans or Welsh-Americans?
Sound weird  don’t they?  Kinda unnecessary.
Anyone ever heard of Canadian-Americans?
Or Australian-  or New Zealand-  oh...

Americans For Fair Elections
Americans For Fair Elections

Who is it now that pays the way,
Of politicians gone astray,
And who now will pave the way,
For that which they were paid,

We are Americans who stand true and proud,
Witnessing incredible devastations,
So we shout our mantra strong and proud,
We are 'Americans For Fair...

Premium Member A Canadian's Letter To Americans: a Thousand Points of Light
A Thousand Points of Light! ! ! ! !

Once a beacon of democracy
A shining light on the hill
The ‘American Dream’
	Anyone can ‘make it’  
Never more than aspirational
Structurally delusional

Always susceptible to its 
	Achilles heel of secessionism
Some of its best assassinated  
	Or by monied politics...

Wolf’s Song

I have the Great Wolf’s spirit
Flowing through my veins.
I can feel how my tribe suffered
When I gaze at their remains.
For all that’s left has turned to dust,
No longer do they cry.
They remain a haunting memory
Where soaring eagles fly.

Once a mighty nation
With pride and love...

Premium Member It wasn't all that long ago, The State of the Union
It wasn't all that long ago when covid
choked the world with it's grasp.
People became anxious, some belligerent, when
asked to merely mask.
While others stock piled toilet paper to
wipe their sorry ass..
A million Americans suffered.
A million Americans passed.
Our health care system became overburdened
with such a daunting task..
People...
