Gregory Allen Uhan (December 24,1987 / Warren, Michigan)
America Is Not... Is
America is something far greater
beyond the borders of the united states
America is not made of rock land or sea
America is not the country
we were fooled into
mistaking it to be
America is not a monger of war
not a preacher of nationalism
America does not exploit
the weaknesses of humanity
America has never been
represented accurately
or depicted properly
by those career manipulators
America is not a place
where one man can reject
the presence of another
America is raw unearthed potential
freedom truth beauty equality!
America resides in the heart and mind
America is home of the human spirit
America is a dream of potential earth utopia
America is something we all cherish and long for
America, its time we redefine ourselves
rethink our concept of who we are.

A sublime piece. Couldn't possibly be put in any better way. All my respect to you.
Amazing poem, your patriotism shines with every word in this awesome piece of poetry...
very good... you have touched the heart of the matter!
I liked the ending of your piece of poetry. Yes, we as Americans need to redefine
ourselves and learn to live as our forefathers designed it to be. I thought your
word read smoothly and it was a beautiful one. It was one of those that make
you think and I like those.
