The dream,
That damn dream,
Is just that it seems…
False propaganda,
The stitching in the seams
Of those stars and stripes.
As the rich, get richer,
The thin, get thinner
Nothing getting smaller, but the bellies of our poor.
Author notes
Prompt ~Government
It can be your good views on America or
Bad views of the Sad Sad Situation that America is in.
If you are not from America it can be about where you are from also.
Thanks
