are we really going to let them bark at us
and still award
and reward them
for the pain they’ve caused?
despite the blowout and her sitting on the stimulus
she’s still back in.
despite stuffing thousands into COVID-ridden nursing homes
and blatantly saying for everyone to hear that
he does not care what you think
he’s still awarded an Emmy—
he’s a politician, not an actor.
the difference used to be that
politicians play with people’s lives and livelihoods
but I guess we’re blurring those lines too now, huh?
they do not deserve praise.
they do not get to have us blindly believing them
day in and day out.
If you want us to believe you
PROVE IT.
prove that there was no fraud,
because things do seem very fishy.
prove that the president colluded with a foreign enemy,
because saying you have evidence is not always enough.
prove that spygate wasn’t real,
despite the falsities of the dociee and the documents of Flynn’s unmasking.
Prove it, and then I’ll take your word.
I’m not a blind follower.
I refuse to be.
I’m staring at this mess right now wondering
what have we come to?
this once great nation has very likely been torn
by the wrongdoings of the establishment we were trying to escape those centuries ago.
WHAT HAVE WE COME TO?
America the Beautiful,
America the Free,
America the Brave,
answer me.
what have we come to?
