Division Versus Union Poem by Hebert Logerie

Divided
We fail
United
We prevail.
Divided
We're foiled
United
We're broiled.
Divided
We fall
United
We stand tall.
Divided
We lose
United
We can choose
Death or liberty
To live freely
To prosper
Not like a pauper
But like a progressive being
To work, build, win, and be seen
In the world, and be respected
Honored and emulated.
Divided
We're defeated
United
We're protected.
Divided
We're losers
United
We're winners.
The sky looks blue and white
For many reasons
There are many seasons
To be wrong and to be right.
Divided
We have no land
United
We stand
Straight and tall like a palm tree
Which represents Peace and Liberty.
