The American Dream Poem by sammie kelley

The American Dream



Everyone wants a better way of life
But someone stabbed America in the back with a knife
The fact is the poor still roam the streets
And the all powerful mob still meets
Crime is still on the rise
And the greedy still filled with lies
Every ten minutes someone is killed
And another casket unfortunately filled
Rape and abuse counts are higher than ever
Tell me is this going to last forever?
There's children without homes to live in
And the lower class still living in sin.
Kids with drugs in their blood traces
Nobody wants to collaborate the races
And our precious air is filled with pollution
God please give us a solution
Everyday someone dies of disease
And we take this with great ease.
Is this the way we want America to be?
If so then set me free...
