These days
it is difficult to write what I feel
because I am so damn angry
If America is so awful
leave and enter the horror
You’ll see if we really are all that bad
Statements as such makes me want to
exorcise slap the stupidity and ignorance
from the individual’s soul
The mentality that
It’s not the worst so it is good enough
is a cop-out, a sidestep
far below the standards of even a child,
one that stretches to an individual’s personal dilemmas
In my opinion,
my two angry early-morning cents,
if you do nothing
if you fight for nothing
if you stand for nothing
all the while contributing
consciously
to the society you claim to despise as nothing,
then you are the problem
and your life is a result of how you have been living it
af
(written with pen on paper)
can’t someone do something, stand for something, fight for something, and contribute something, and still feel that if you think America is so horrible…find someplace else….i think someone can (me for one)…
I am saying that that has been the founding principle of people in this part of the world since the late-1400s. You just don’t go into someone’s homeland, change it to how you like it then tell them, “If you don’t like it, then get the hell out.” That is the arrogance that has taken over America. Personally, I feel “If you don’t like it, then stop being the reason why it is shitty. There’s room for you here, just get your shit together.” And, I mean that for all people who consciously abuse the system, from Wall St to rednecks.
