Our gracious Lady Liberty sheds a tear for this land now ruled by hatred and fear.              In cities, riots and indignation now rule the streets of this once great nation.

A dark chapter begins with the turn of a page.

Tyranny reigns where freedom now wanes. Great America is at war with her own and the seeds of discord are sown.

Do you feel the seething rage?

Is this what we have become? We proclaim black lives matter, blue lives matter, all lives matter; yet we fail to accord human dignity. Why do we hold to our hatred and bigotry?

Do you feel the burning, fiery hate?

To the winds of contempt, our flag is unfurled. We have shamed Great America before the world. We have demeaned our allies and praised evil tyrants. We build walls where we once welcomed hard-working migrants.

Do you feel the darkness of contempt in this age?

Do not hold to what we have become but what we could be if united as one.
