and its Spacious Skies
Make me wonder
in these days of
closed lives
Who are we
to close the borders?
Who are you, Mr Bush?
To turn away the principles
that this country was founded on?
Is it really America The Beautiful?
Or is it America: For the rich and powerful.
These are things we must ask ourselves
when we identify ourselves as Americans
We say we feel great to be Americans
to be Free.
But why then
do we spend all our time turning people away.
We won't deify you, Mr Bush
but we WIll demonize you
or rather
You demonize yourself
Tony Blair, You're no better
turning Britain,
a once proud nation
into Little America.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
America the Beautiful Indeed
The Statue of Liberty says
"Give me your poor...
your tired
your huddled masses."
All the while,
the country founded by immigrants
is putting up walls
Go to hell Mr Bush.
Oh wait...
We're already here.
Long shall it be the years
When we spend billions on foriegn oil
to line businesses pockets
I don't think the people dieing of hugner
appreciate you deciding to pay farmers
not to grow crops.
And then you spend all your time looking good
by spending money on foreign countries
when people in your own die in droves.
When will the Americans get it?
It is not glorious to be American
It is not glorious to sit back
and watch others die
acting through
Schadenfraude.
It is your kind
Mr Bush
That have demonized our country
and your kind
that turned the Middle East against us
and your kind as well
that keep us dependent on them
long enough to start another war with them
When will you be satisfied Mr Bush?
When we're all dead?
When you no longer have a country to rule?
No Mr Bush
We will not deify you
but we WILL demonize you
but this is not a threat.
I dare not threatnen a Presidents Life
because it is not my place.
I do say this.
Your conscience will do worse to you
then any other.
These words of wisdom are not meant as a threat
nor should they be taken as such
but remember
America The Beautiful
And what you've done to our poor country.
