poem of the day July 4
The birthday of a nation
Independence Day
Another 4th of July
The old red white and blue
Uncle Sam is another year older
and is really starting
to show his age
A steady set of aches and pains
born of angry grievances
have taken root everywhere
Have infected the foundations
of everyday freedoms
that now show signs
of structural damage
where institutions
are now very far removed
from the founding fathers'
idea of liberty and justice for all
