We The People Ii Poem by Gregory Huyette

We the people of this great land

Are fortunate indeed and understand

That it has been acquired with blood and tears

Of many whose patriotism overcame their fears.


We the people guarantee everyone rights every day

Or our system will be held hostage and wither away

As an historically privileged few extend their control,

Thus destroying the power of the people's role.


We the people through our informed choice

Determine the value of each of our leader's voice.

If we don't understand issues or get involved,

There'll be no quality leaders or problems resolved.
