America is number one!
You’re right, we are number one;
Number one in military spending.
Number one in people imprisoned.
Number one in discrimination.
In prejudice.
In arrogance.
I don't want to take your jobs, or have your money-
I don't want your welfare, property, or clothes.
I don't want to take advantage of your health care or social security-
America is the new China
I was built up like
The great wall of china
I am strong, powerful, impenetrable,
Fortified heavily until nothing can hurt me.
But like the great wall of china,
the flag is defiled with blood
the oozing red glistenes the streets
decorates batons
stains blue jumpsuits
the flag is soaked salt infested tears
the clear liquid adorning brown mother's faces
Aren’t laws and regulations supposed to be great for our country?
Well, I am a clear example that this is not true
The government thinks that separating a family because of immigration issues is ok
I am confused most of the time
I feel as if my world tumbles day after day
I don't really know what I want out of this life
I just don't see the point of many things anymore
I believe TIME is just passing me by
