" Though my heart skips with hope" ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

America, like Canada, has committed many crimes against humanity. In 1954, my parents had had to make a most difficult decision: live in USA or Canada. That decision had profoundly affected my life. Had they chosen America, I would have either gone to prison or become a draft dodger. I don't believe in unjustified war. And I don't believe in killing. Great poem, Lee Ann!

America is a conundrum, it was the leading light of democracy and all modern nations that cherish human rights and liberty look towards the idea of what america is, but now its greatness is being chipped away, by businessmen, by fascists, by ignorance, lady liberty is being stabbed repeatedly and know one knows what to do. Its good to have pride in ones country but we cannot be blind to its faults.

Great poem. Truth hurts but is necessary. Trump is going so we expect America to be normal. Eh uncle Sam.
