Dearly beloved,
We are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses
To address the issues of the political injustice in our country.
The United States is a free country.
People come to it for a better life.
Each immigrant comes with a family.
A husband settles in it with his wife.
Unlike illegals, he does not break laws.
Wayward students bobbing aimlessly
Wanderers, idle, unfocused, undisciplined
“heads up keels down; keep your bearing”
Vigilant and watchful - ever watchful
America the free, America the brave
America where I am looked down upon for the cadence of my name
America where my people are slaughtered in the streets
America where murderers with a badge walk free
at this time of great unrest
our nation stands
divided
in a civil war of prose
snowflakes and nazis
aliens and terrorists
little do our people know
pride comes before the fall
