What Within Us?

what within us?

white men, dark suits
red ties, white shirts
army of pain dealers
tearing apart our homes
leaving us to wander,
wonder
what within us
keeps us chained
under such vile rule?

Steve’s post today inspired me to share a poem I’ve been working on for a few days. Please take a few moments to read Steve’s post and my poem. It matters.

    A great question, Lisa. As long as 46% of the voters think this is the way to go, not much will change any time soon!!
