America the Formidable
America the
For∙mi∙da∙ble: “Inspiring fear, or
respect
through being impressively large, powerful, intense or capable.”
America is
Impressive: the land of
Opportunity
But for who?
America is
Large: vast in
Size
Seemingly going on forever.
America is
Powerful: the winner of
Wars
The homefront readily defended.
America is
Intense: causing many to
Cower
Intimidated by none.
America is
Capable: nothing seems out of
Reach
For those in the Blessed U.S.A.
But America is also
Depressive: a land of
Missed opportunity
For the ones that are left behind
America is also
Small: in the grand scheme of
Things
Our problems don’t seem like problems at all.
America is also
Weak: divided by
Differences
Are we “United” or “Untied?”
America is also
Apathetic: is there concern or
Interest
For the well-being of others?
America is also
Inept: somehow we aren’t able to
Help the poor
In the land of great opportunity.
America the
Formidable: a place that has the
Potential
To be great, but isn’t there yet.
