New World Tears
I am
Moses for I could not enter the Promised Land
Land of Liberty that destroyed Kings and
dictating bands
Shining
city on the hill it came to be known
For its
light shone far and wide and the oppressed weren’t alone
Then came
the time when mistakes entered the fray
Aristotle
was slain as Plato began to rule the day
Constituted
to heal the individual from malaise
Money
became the morality where virtues were once raised
Shaky
foundations are the new order of pay for play
Fear the
emotion that hates and smites all in its way
Undermining
Liberty and
replacing it with Plato’s Republic
Utopia
it’s vision but dystopia the promise and reality tyrannic
Yet
despite, the flicker of light has always been the renewal ability
That when
this great People have seen the abyss, they see reality
That the
light of Washington Jefferson and Paine is Liberty’s nobility
And that
once more the turn will be from like all others to exceptionality
