So Sick!
I am so sick:
Of the saggy pants, the red against blue,
18th street against 13th,
And so much blatant disrespect,
Curse words and the middle finger,
Thrown about-now a way of life.
The white supremists hate all those not white,
Nigger and spick, kike or whop,
Words meant to demean and show contempt,
Spew from their hateful lips.
And the blacks want to punish the great-great ancestors,
Who owned their very own great-great relatives,
Who toiled in a world they knew nothing about,
And suffered and worked and cried.
The Mexicans risk life and limb,
As well as possible incarceration.
In order to bring children to a land,
Which offers far more than their homeland.
But their children hang our flag upside,
And refuse to show honor as the pledge is recited.
They call each other names,
And have no respect for their elders,
They kill each other in the streets,
And like dogs mark their territories with graffiti.
In truth, they own nothing,
They are bullies, all.
But they have terrorized our cities…until,
One way or another, they do seem to rule.
I agree with everything you say. It makes you wonder what our world is coming too. I recently wrote a poem about something that happened in 1974, you'd think we'd be a little better by now. But all is not lost, there are good people.

The damage has long been done.
As long as someone thinks they have something to loose, and some one else thinks their missing out.
Struggle is what you get.
A good rant. Take care Tony
Sort of makes one wonder if they feast on the misery of others. Like vampires they prey on the weakness of the innocent. Very powerful write my friend. Peace, Love & Blessings Always, Paul.
They are here! which is a pity.
This is exactly what quite a few of our kids are, hugs&love
Thank you for this poem, Karen. You've made excellent points!

The number one problem of our society is that our authorities don't respect the Constitution of USA, therefore, anarchy and vandalism are the results of our outlaw and shameful omission.
"So Sick!" rings the bells of Justice.

Don't EVEN get me started on the Mexicans!! GRRRRRR!!!!!!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(
DON'T hate Mexican people, but I hate their refusal to assimilate into our culture, learn our language, and so forth!! I face this every day, and it DRIVES. ME. CRAZY!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!
How very true. Hate blinds and corrupts reason. Laws on immigration require "allegiance" to the host country and respect for its flag, it should even mandate the adoption of the country's language as part of assimilation. Refusal to do so shoul;d be grounds for legal deportation. For why else would you stay in a country you hate? Logic dictates they leave ASAP. Comprende?

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
specially in the big cities
The U S of A its on its way down like the Roman empire
and all other great degenerated civilizations
A destruction from within,
Love & peace be with you
