The American Dream

She only
wanted
to be able
to live
the American Dream
Fantasies of Being
the Queen
Of her own
destiny
were replaced
by "doing johns"
all day long
on her knees
Smuggled
in a trailer
with 20 or so
felt like
human cattle
being transported
for slaughter
The land of freedom
the home of the brave
could only be
seen through
a window
of the hotel room
at the motel 6
The Coyote smiled
at the prospect
of an open border
as the call
for civil rights
meant increased
revenue
for his wallet
The American's  desire
for morality
fuels the
engine
to corruption
For every action
there is a
reaction
Political Agendas
on both fronts
feeds the silver
to her
reality
of the
American Dream
Dirty truth
smitten
by Progressive
Idealism
Capitalist Wealth
donated
at the Offering plate
of a conservative
Evangelical Church
True evil
goes beyond
the Brothel
True Evil
comes in a form
of a self serving veil
called ignorance
worn both
by those
who wear a "Pink Beanie"
and a Red Baseball Cap
True evil
Manifests
in our delusions
of what we
call the
American Dream

Hey G!!.....WOW!!.....this is brilliant poetic prose that drips down the page SCREAMING to be heard for the GREAT subject matter that it is..... but even more so for the VERY well formatted and arranging of text and insight!!..... It's like a poetic 'Expose' that deserves headlines!!......I was so compelled to move quickly forward that I almost felt as though I knew what you were going to say before you said it!!..... and THAT!! (for me)..... is truly excellent writing!!.......ALL STARS!! & PINNED!!..,...smokin' grooves my friend!!....smokin' grooves!!.......T xo ?�
