America Degraded
He marches side by side
With the one who cries, "Equality!"
Enraged, they wreck and thrash.
Their lips read, "White trash!"
Across the lane she stands,
Blindfolded to the carnage behind.
Her mouth spews all but conscious thought
For the tiny being whose life she brought.
He charges. She rises.
For the juxtaposition of "human goodness."
America the great?
America the shaded.
America the jaded.
America degraded.
From the adage of yore,
An amaranthine conclusion.
Cursed be the lands seas that bless
The reason and the might of the carnal flesh.
