rePUBLICans

They say they will change the world
Make peace
In the middle east
Make peace in a land
War torn since the beginning of man
Give equal rights to all
As long as you're a white male
With the green
With no disabilities
Who likes women
And God and Jesus
No homos allowed
No women in power
No healthcare
No non-Christians
No liberal thinking
No open-minds
The rich get richer
And the poor and poorer
No research for cancer
Or AIDS
No help for Africa
Just America
Or so they say to the reporters
Take care of our own
As long as they are
Straight, Rich, Christian, White Males

Katie,
These are your poems, your words...you don't have to apologize to anyone for what you think, feel, etc. I like this newer, more political side of you that is emerging.
