From divine religions of compassions
Heartbeats of respect to humanity
Seeds germinating in flowering buds
Radiant sunbeams golden delicious.

The tree of American fruit of Truth
Taking bites onto mirror reflections
Digesting those future revelations
Seeing politics ugly compassion.

Official Republican religion
Profit of Corporate monetary greed
Upon treating Middle Class as servants
Outsourcing the dreams of the utter poor.

Slum Congress of selling America,
Wealthy segregated religious schools
Bridges to nowhere funded Public Schools
Perks given to private education.

Oh, Washington of building Ski Slopes
Leaving mainstream people so destitute
Faith’s Country Club of master deception
Elected official debauchery.

Golden Idol Washington plundering
Dirty fashion statements of Royalty.
American streets grow homeless spirits
Foreign Global Congressional members.

Great Republican Democrat divide,
Old Guard family succumbed graft’s greed
Selling their souls true devotion overseas
Human shame Patriot Act loyalty.

“We the people” in fraternity’s shams
Neglect from Washington’s power brokers
“We the people” taking over State Parties
Independent Freedom Democracy.

Individual rights, checks and balances,
National Parties decentralized,
Corporation’s Washington negated
National leaders need confirmation.

Here lies the ripe fruit of the divine truth,
Bad apples Abu Graith imagery pictures,
Rotten Guantanamo lifetime justice
Executive Privilege Supreme Judge.

Congress compassion of Katrina tears,
Public Schools of reading, writing failure
Arithmetic’s math of tax diversions
Onto bridges going nowhere funding.

Oh, politicians of pork so afraid
Of intelligence in divine truth,
Secret Cheney Creative Accounting
Selling our children’s dreams to foreigners.

What being, more important than Main Street
Where people walk hand in hand diversity.
America takes credence among needs,
God bless American “We the people!”
