American Society
By Antonio Thomas


The amount of money I have, lifestyle choices

I make
makes
me…
No different from other humans who share this
wonderful
Earth

Martin Luther King changed history
in his time more then few others
have done
before or since

President George Walker Bush, Washington D.C., enjoying

affluence
and
supremacy

Oil so precious, important that it
can take the lives
of more than 500,000
American soldiers

Six years of a war that tears apart a nation

taking lives of many, excluding those

who our gay, killing civilians everyday

health care

for

few

while most give it for free America makes it so only the
rich
can
afford.

This election year who will change the tide

Only we can decide
Will America be all it can
Or worst than Iran?
