Fucking American


Maybe democracy doesn't work
Because we the people,
Are fucking idiots
Predecessors of greed
wrapped in swaddling ignorance
Our trembling bodies
Nestled warmly in fabricated lies

What is America?
But some pile of blood soaked soil
A defecation between here and there
Land of misguided Opportunity
Give me one heart
That doesn't bleed money
Green pigment flooding our minds
Blinded by stars and stripes
Bullies of morality
Dictators of progression
Give yourself a pat on the back
We've earned it

Tied up in ourselves
Bow your head and pray
For the truth

~*~ We Are Doomed ~*~

We always were .......



A failed attempt at a Free World
A fable of equality and justice
Legends born from idealism
Born to die, drifting
Into the sweet by and by
My last wish:
Bury me with her,
Deep beneath her skin
My beautiful dying ember
I can see the flame dimming
Flickering in vane,
Casting it's ghost upon me
Like the horizon at sunset
Bringing to light my every flaw
That fucking American...
...Fuck Em..
..Bury me in her heart
- What can I say -
I love the bitch

I want to believe in her
But my righteous mind says "no"
The slithering serpent
Venomous when allowed
Her two cents
I wish i could swallow every sin,
And carry your weight
But my stomach isn't made
For Nagasaki and Hiroshima
My shoulders are to tired
To carry Slavery on my back
My Hands?
They aren't idol enough
To play with you,
In the Devil's Workshop
Count me out
....... I Quit....
...That's right
A Fucking American
And I quit!

I have to free myself from you
You are my souls cancer
Disappointing
We could have...
Maybe been something
But you chose Monopoly
A needle for gluttonous greed
And i chose democracy

I will pray for you
Though you are just 13 decadent stripes
And 50 dwindling stars
In the end, you don't mean
Anything

    I loved this. I feel exactly the same way. This was a phenomenal piece and I am very glad you found your way to this contest because this was exactly one of the things that I love to hear from other people. I mean besides my friends (we drone on and on all day about our flawed system...). This was amazing. Thank you and good luck
