2018–INDEPENDENCE DAY

Common knowledge suggests that fury with congressmen who
For decades have turned a blind eye to the needs of their constituents
(Who, in turn, are accountable for which politicians rise to power)
Caused voters to elect a leader (over all) who, day after day, dishonors
The soulful rights of all families so as to refocus my hopes for
Change for the better away from my generation toward
Our youth, soon to own the vote that will march our nation toward
Reconciling with principles that gave birth to our strong spirited belief in
Mankind’s innate right to pursue happiness, prosperity and liberty regardless
Of class, color, religion, or place of origin, and though intuitive thought
Inspired my think tank to pen the first portion of this post (most likely
In keeping with Independence Day) ‘tis’ the conscious portion of
My processor that, once again, has focused my compassion to
Land upon the plight of thousands of children, who, having been
Torn from the security of their loved ones’ embrace, have been
Deprived of all sense of personal safety, which has been
Callously ripped to shreds by the decree of a maniacal egotist, who
Being surrounded by a majority of spineless congressmen, has been
Turned loose to personify Ming The Merciless who tunes out
Every desperate entreaty of all who feel need to plead for
Change for the better ASAP unless his decrees prove so despicably cruel as
To stir the populous across the nation to arise with such an uproar as to
Condemn all heartless souls who care not for human suffering other than
Their own, and now, having released my mind of frustration that
Will continue to build up until justice is served throughout our nation as
A whole, it’s my fervent hope that this Fourth of July celebration of
Independence Day will offer deep thinkers sound reason to
Brainstorm with others concerning how best to improve upon
The sad state of our nation’s leadership as a whole, and while
Brainstorming how best to secure our borders from those who
Enter illegally, clarity must keep this deeper truth in
The forefront of our minds:  Most illegal immigrants are simply
Poverty-stricken parents, whose thoughts are focused ‘soully’upon
Bettering the innocent lives of their children as is true of
Those parents, who, though legal citizens, prove to be
Poverty-stricken, as well ... suggesting that the youth of
Our great nation (soon to vote) has countless reasons to elect
Congressmen who can master the courage and compassion to
Create laws that will consider the needs of the destitute in such
A soulful manner as to detour The USA from toppling off of its
World power pedestal before time marches on toward attracting
Tourists from foreign shores to view our ruins as proves true in Rome
And now, having dived deep into my think tank in hopes of
Igniting my spirit to release pent up frustration in a
Productive manner, my intuitive powers are guiding
My processor to come up for air in time to enjoy
The Fourth of July with my family, all of whom are
Decked out in red, white and blue in honor of the freedoms that
None must take for granted, though most of us who have
Been blessed to have been born here—do ...
