America
America is kinda like that It Girl
Ya know the one
With the blindingly white blonde hair
Smothered with bleach and the constant strokes of a flatiron
She appears to have everything on the outside
But her insides are rotting away with spite
She’s superficial
Consumed with only one thing
Herself

She is miserable, cold, and vindictive
She sneers at the world with her dark blue eyes
Like shallow pools of harsh waters
People in our world are starving and suffering
She doesn’t care
Because She’s too busy watching the Jersey Shore
And being completely infatuated by Facebook
Ravenously scanning each and every status
America the brave?
America the beautiful?
More like America the selfish B***h
