America is Anorexic

                 America is malnourished the disenfranchised has regurgitated the American dream,has vomited up her ideals upon the fields of her hypocrisy,the downtrodden has come home to roost,to expose her seeds of sin written upon cosmetically dyed promises and revealed the true face of inequality,

Who will burn the candle for America’s mourning,for her starvation, for her anorexia, for herself inflicted head wounds.
