These Yet To Be United States Comments

As we know we hide for which we cling to we still abide

You dwell in whitened castles with deep and poisoned moats and cannot hear the curses which fill your children's throats. With deep and poisoned moats...... very fine and very expressive. tony

One of the best powerful poems by Maya Angelou.... Onto my poem list........

While we are knowlonger living so close on the eve of destruction, the atom bomb is still the shadow of a noose that hangs around civilizations. Angelou does an amazing job contextualizing the fear and horror that this weapon does, in the hands of countries like America the world submits to terror at what these powers could unleash. A great choice for Modern poem of the day!

The then picture of America is impressively inscribed.

A powerful and incisive write. Beautifully written with compelling imagery.
