A Country Such As This

“Disease can not cure disease but rather spread its illness” – Beth
A country such as this
diseased
morals crumbling
socially decaying from within
nobility lost
wars for profits and natural resources rather than humanity.
Truth has become lie and a lie truth.
Wrong has become right and right has become wrong.
A country such as this can not spread anything apart from its own diseased nature, can not help but to spread its illness and set those in power who will bow to it, worship the giver and burn any who speak contrary
in a country such as this.
A country unable to see its own disease
can not bring democracy nor peace,
rather spread its own illness
through
more schools for less education
homeless shelters to call home
history lessons without history
pens afraid to write of darkness.
Blood for oil
stains our,
streets
homes
hospitals
hollywood
music
nightclubs
shiny things
created poverty
truth
politicians
uniforms
guns
planes
bombs
democracy.
The maddows of this country will stop at nothing to justify self serving laws
spewing hatred
propagandas as they try desperately to hold the tent of the circus together
lest we see
the diseases destroying this country
minds of the young
eyes unable to see
a flag stained with death
in a country such as this.
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR:
The decay of a country no longer able to see.
