In America

You told us you could do anything,

gun someone down on the streets of Manhattan,

become pro war to put a smear on the Nobel,

create an abolishment of our voting privileges,

deny any responsibility for your racist personality.

The president has the privilege of executive orders.

He has swiftly destroyed governmental icons.

Everything he does is condoned and soon forgotten.

But the damage is done, we are all so troubled.

His ignorance makes me cringe to watch the news.

His latest criminal moment destroys the Obamas.

We know, I’ll give him no prizes for ignorance.

Over the years, he’s had plenty of moments,

Somehow a walk around exists in complicity.

We’re struggling far beyond an element of politics.

In this current demise, I fear for our friends.

They’re unable to leave their homes. In America.
