Poem Artwork


 


Office of Homeland Security,


A farce of immense proportions,


Are we secure or are we just lost in obscurity,


Held we are in a case of surety…


 


No force shield do we have to of us protect,


Told we are no system is perfect,


I mean by my statements no disrespect,


Just am I here to offer what I learned when I did self-reflect…


 


Of what do we fear,


That a terrorist will get near,


They are “Laden” with bombs,


Making statements to create stress,


Using words to create what exactly they get, duress…
