America
A long awaited destiny stood
Behind the lovely future
Cuz it was harsh and
Deadly.
Efficient for the killing of her tormentors
For she is the trained
Goddess of War.
How did she live past the
Instant elimination of her people?
Just look at her, for she is the strength of many.
Klumsy in her youth, she grew stronger
Learning as she became older, but now she is slouched,
Mourning for the lost and for her past.
No longer what everyone knew she used to be.
Only struggling to get by.
Preoccupied with the wars.
Questioning what she should do.
Rifts formed between her people.
Soldiers dying on the unwanted battlefield.
Times changed and the
Universe is watching
Verifying what they already knew.
What does she have left? The injured and broken? The fields left untended?
X-treme poverty?
Yes, she is tainted, but we have hope in her. Hope that she will rise again, and shine in full glory.
Zestful she will become once the future becomes the present.
